23、1 Scope EN 50288-4-2 is a sectional specification for screened cables, characterised from 1 MHz up to 600 MHz, to be used as work area cables to connect a telecommunications outlet to the terminal equipment and for patch cord cables to establish connections on a patch panel as defined in EN 50173. W
24、ork area and data centres cables may also be used as patch cord cables in any distributor of a generic building wiring system to interconnect with equipment or to cross-connect between cabling systems. This sectional specification contains the electrical, mechanical, transmission and environmental p
25、erformance characteristics of the cables, when tested in accordance with the referenced test methods. This sectional specification is to be read in conjunction with EN 50288-1 that contains the essential provisions for its application. The cables covered in this sectional specification are intended
26、to operate with voltages and currents normally encountered in communication systems. These cables are not intended to be used in conjunction with low impedance sources, for example, the electric power supplies of public utility mains. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in pa
27、rt, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application. For dated references, only the edition cited applies.
