Backbone Cabling (& Where OCC Products fit)
What is it?
Types of Backbone cabling
Network Architecture Basics
4 segments generally divided where one cable ends and
another begins
Horizontal Segment
Work Area to TR
Riser Segment
TR to the ER (one type of Backbone)
Campus Segment
Connects multiple Buildings in either an entrance facility or
Equipment room (another Backbone)
Local Access Segment
The Demarcation point where the network backbone meets the
outside world
Horizontal & Backbone Cabling
568-C.1 Commercial Bldg. Cabling System
Horizontal Cabling
Begins where a device (Computer, phone, etc.) plug into
an outlet.
That outlet is terminated typically with utp cable which
leads back to the TR and is terminated on the back of a
patch panel.
A patch cord is then plugged from the front of the panel
into the active equipment that provides access to the end
device.
Horizontal & Backbone Cabling
Horizontal Cabling
Permanent Link:
90 Meter Max
Patch cord connecting
device to network
Patch cord
connecting
patch panel to
active device
Channel:  PL + 10 meters of Patch cords are
allowed = 100 meters
Other configurations
Consolidation Point
Permanent mid link connection
Multi User Telecommunication Outlet Assy. (Mutoa)
Like a CP but not permanent so they can be more easily
configured)
Trade off longer equipment cords for shorter horizontal lengths.
(100 meter rule changes depending on patch cord lengths).
FttE:  Fiber to the Enclosure
Like having a satelite TR
One way of getting cables out to a WA that is farther than 90M

Still 90 m
permanent link
Fiber bypasses TR and extends out to TE.
Fiber cable length 300m maximum
unspliced recommended by TIA/EIA
What Products are used in the Horizontal segment?
Patch cords (WA & Closet) (Copper or Fiber)
Faceplates, surface boxes, multi-media boxes
Jacks & Adapters
Cable (Copper or Fiber)
Patch Panels
Racks/ Cabinets (floor or Wall)
Cable Management
Fiber Boxes
Horizontal & Backbone Cabling
 
Horizontal & Backbone Cabling
Back Bone Cabling
 (2 Types)
The first is Intra-building
Usually runs between floors through passageways called Risers.
Can be copper or Fiber
Can be Distributed or Collapsed
Distributed Connects to the horizontal cabling (typically in
the TR) and is the most flexible for Network Growth
Collapsed is a direct fiber optic cable link to the WA.
Intra building backbones are recommended for max runs of
300meters unless high bandwidth fiber is used.
 
Horizontal & Backbone Cabling
Back Bone Cabling
 (2 Types)
The second is Inter-building
This is the backbone cabling that connects Multiple
buildings like you would see in a campus environment
Due to long distances the preferred cabling choice is
fiber optic cable
Cable can be Aerial, direct buried, or buried in conduit
Typically one building will house an equipment room
where the main cross connect can be found linking all
buildings.
