Structured Cabling: Thommy A. Purisima

Structured cabling refers to a standardized telecommunications infrastructure within a building consisting of five subsystems: the demarcation point where external networks connect; equipment rooms housing connectivity devices; vertical cabling between equipment rooms on different floors; horizontal wiring from rooms to individual outlets; and work-area components connecting user equipment. A structured cabling system integrates voice, data, video, security, and other building systems through a standardized set of cabling and connectivity products.

Structured cabling
Structured cabling is building or campus
telecommunications cabling infrastructure that consists
of a number of standardized smaller elements (hence
structured) called subsystems.
A structured Cabling System SCS is a set of
cabling and connectivity products that integrates
the Voice, Data, Video and several other
management systems of a building such as
Safety Alarms, Security Access, Energy
Systems, Office Automation, It peripherals, etc.

Five Subsystems
Demarcation point is the point where the telephone company network
ends and connects with the on-premises wiring at the customer premises.
Equipment or Telecommunications Rooms house equipment and wiring
consolidation points that serve the users inside the building or campus.
Vertical or Riser Cabling connects between the
equipment/telecommunications rooms, so named because the rooms are
typically on different floors.
Horizontal wiring can be IW (inside wiring) or Plenum Cabling and
connects telecommunications rooms to individual outlets or work areas on
the floor, usually through the wireways, conduits or ceiling spaces of each
floor.
Work-Area Components connect end-user equipment to outlets of the
horizontal cabling system.
