Basis of Design/Specification

1.0 Intent

1.1 This Basis of Design (BOD)/Specifications is for the provisioning and installation of a Structured Cabling System (refer to section 3.0, under Structured Cabling System Installation Requirements), consisting of mainly CAT6A cabling to support multiple communication networks. The structured cabling system will include, but is not limited to; workstation outlet boxes, faceplates and connectors, equipment rack(s), patch panels, cable management, and associated cable tray and cable pathway systems throughout the office spaces and in the Telecommunications/Firebird room(s).
1.2 Project Design and Installation Codes and Standards: The telecommunications structured cabling infrastructure shall be designed and installed to the following codes and standards, and practices (Current Editions): a. BICSI ITSIMM “Information Systems Installation Methods Manual” (current edition) b. BICSI TDMM “Telecommunications Distribution Methods Manual” (current edition)
