This generic cabling system for h
24、omes is specified within EN 50173-4 . Formerly, there had been no test requirement for home cabling. Connectivity tests and visual inspection were, at best, random and insufficient. However, bandwidth requirements of the home applications are ever increasing and home-owners need assurance that their
25、 generic cabling will indeed support intended network technologies that are delivered to the home and distributed throughout the home. This part of IEC 61935 addresses both verification and qualification of home cabling. BS EN 61935-3:2009 EN 61935-3:2009Licensed Copy: Wang Bin, ISO/EXCHANGE CHINA S

33、rted in home cabling are: ICT: such as 10, 100 1000BASE-T, IEEE 1394 being the most popular; analog telephone, ISDN and DSL applications; BCT: VHF/UHF TV signals (up to 862 MHz), FM radio signals; satellite TV signals, CCTV; control applications. 4.2 General Telecommunications cabling (e.g., voice,
34、data, video, security, audio, control) can be damaged during the construction phases of rough-in, drywall installation, and even during the siding of the exterior. Many of these damaging faults result from causes such as nails and staples penetrating the cable, severe kinks in the cable where the ca
35、ble was pulled through a drilled hole in a stud or joist, or a cable tear where the cable sheath and conductors are damaged from pulling the cable. For these reasons, telecommunications cabling shall yield to a process to ensure conformance. This process includes: a) visual examination of the cablin
36、g; b) verification testing of the cabling; c) qualification testing or certification testing of the cabling, and d) producing a documented report of results. Visual examination and verification Qualification application specific Certification generic cabling IEC 277/084.3 Visual inspection Whenever
37、it is possible, visual inspection of each cable run shall be made after the cable has been installed, but prior to installation of insulation and drywall. Visual inspection may include but is not limited to a) obvious damage to cable (condition and workmanship); b) separation from EMC sources; c) in
38、correct bend radi, and d) noticeable excessive cable length. 4.4 Verification Verification testing is performed after cable placement and prior to the installation of insulation and drywall and shall be performed to ensure proper end-to-end connectivity. Coaxial cable shall be verified to ensure con
39、nectivity to the remote end with an absence of shorts between the centre conductor and the outer shield. Twisted-pair cabling verification tests shall include: BS EN 61935-3:2009EN 61935-3:2009Licensed Copy: Wang Bin, ISO/EXCHANGE CHINA STANDARDS, 23/07/2010 03:24, Uncontrolled Copy, (c) BSI 8 a) co
40、ntinuity to the remote end; b) length, c) no shorts between any two or more conductors; d) crossed pairs; e) reversed pairs, f) split pairs, and g) any other mis-wiring; h) continuity of screens (if any). Verification testing for twisted pair shall be accomplished with connectors on both ends of the
41、 cable. Nevertheless, temporary housings may be used for later finish-out of the cabling. Verification testing for cables used in certain applications may not be terminated at both ends with an 8-position modular jack (for example audio cable for speakers or cable for control systems). 5 Qualificati
42、on and certification testing 5.1 General Qualification or certification testing of the cabling shall be performed after the trim-out of cabling. Typically, certification testing is performed for the rigorous needs of home cabling for commercial use while qualification testing is performed for dwelli
43、ng homes. 5.2 Qualification testing Qualification testing will determine if the cabling will support certain network technologies (e.g., 1000BASE-T, 100BASE-T, IEEE 1394). For example two cabling runs (cable A and cable B) pass the verification test. A qualification test may show that cable A is onl
44、y capable of supporting 10BASE-T, while cable B is able to support Gigabit Ethernet. Qualification testers do not have traceable accuracy to national standards but do provide confidence that specific applications will work. 5.3 Certification testing Certification testing will determine if the cablin
45、g meets or exceeds the specific cabling measurements specified in EN 50173-12. For example, installed class D cabling is measured in the frequency range of 1 MHz to 100 MHz for specific cabling characteristic requirements such as propagation delay, delay skew, insertion loss, NEXT, PSNEXT, ELFEXT, P
46、SELFEXT and return loss. Certification testers have traceable accuracy to national standards, and certification testing is recommended for mission critical cabling installations where defects can cause significant economic damages to the network owner. 5.4 Documentation The qualification tests shall
47、 be summarized within a documented report generated by the test instrument. A copy of the test results summary shall be provided to the owner of the home as well as placed in the distribution centre. 2The measurements are specified in EN 50173-1 , second edition, 2002.
