Appendix F: Setting up the Network Cabling at
Your Site
The network cabling at your site (from the wiring closet to the
wall or cubicle opening) may already be installed. If it is not,
install the cabling following these general guidelines.
1 Connect one end of an Ethernet cable to your network.
Usually, this connection is done in a network wiring closet,
via the patch panel.
2 Terminate the other end of the cable at the location where
the NJ95 is being installed using a female RJ-45 connector.
Refer to the connector manufacturer’s instructions for
terminating the cable. Be sure to test the connector and
verify it is working.
To ensure proper horizontal cabling functionality, adhere to the
following network cabling standards during installation:
■ ANSI/TIA/EIA-568 Commercial Building Telecommunications
Cabling Standard
■ ANSI/TIA/EIA-569 Commercial Building Standard for
Telecommunications Pathways and Spaces
■ British Standard Institute (BSI): BS 4664:1970
■ DIN
CAUTION: It is recommended that a professional cable
installer perform these procedures. Be sure to adhere to
local safety and regulatory codes during the cable
installation.
