9 SYSTEM DESIGN REQUIREMENTS
9.1 HORIZONTAL CABLING
The Horizontal Subsystem is the portion of the telecommunications cabling system that extends from
the work area telecommunications outlet/connector to the horizontal cross - connect in the
telecommunications room. It consists of the telecommunications outlet/connector, the horizontal
cables, optional consolidation point, and that portion of the cross - connect in the telecommunications
room serving the horizontal cable.
9.2 BACKBONE CABLING
9.2.1 INTRABUILDING CABLING
All cable will be installed via a conduit system that will be in place prior to start of project. This system
will be used to connect the main equipment/computer (MDF) room to the (IDF) closets. Data
Backbone will consist of Multimode Fiber optic cabling, 12- strand 62.5/125um & 6- strand 9/125um

backbone transmission media, associated connecting hardware terminating this media, and electrical
protection devices to mitigate harmful voltages when the media is exposed to lightning and /or high
voltage power surges that pass through the building cable. It is normally a first -level backbone cable
beginning at the main cross - connect in the equipment room of the hub building and extending to the
intermediate cross - connect in the equipment room of a satellite building.
