Appendix B Cabling Guidelines

There are two governmental agencies: the Electronic Industry Association (EIA) and the Telecommunications Industry Association (TIA), which set the standard for all cable wiring requirements for commercial buildings.

With the advent of 100Mb/s networking products, it is best to use higher quality CAT 5 cables like Belden or Helix as well as CAT 5-compliant patch panels, patch cables, and connectors while following the EIA/TIA wiring standards. 100 Ω UTP CAT 5 type cables use 4-pair UTP wiring.

Refer to the illustrations below for 4-pair wiring using either T568A (Fig. B-1) or T568B (Fig. B-2) wiring standards. Both T568A and T568B wiring is compatible with 10BASE-T and 100BASE-TX and require no special configurations, but for premise wiring, stick to one wiring standard. Mixing T568A and T568B wiring schemes may cause or lead to potential problems.
