Explains requirements that are common to the other parts of the ISO/IEC 11801 series.

This part of ISO/IEC 11801 specifies requirements that are common to the other parts of the ISO/IEC 11801 series. Cabling specified by this document supports a wide range of services including voice, data, and video that may also incorporate the supply of power.

This document specifies:

• the fundamental structure and configuration of generic cabling requirements within the types of premises defined by the other parts of the ISO/IEC 11801 series,

• channel transmission and environmental performance requirements,

• link performance requirements,

• backbone cabling reference implementations in support of the parts of the ISO/IEC 11801 series,

• component performance requirements, referring to available International Standards for components and test methods where appropriate,

• test procedures to verify conformance to the cabling transmission performance requirements of the ISO/IEC 11801 series.

NOTE This document does not contain specific conformance requirements. The cabling design documents supported by ISO/IEC 11801-1 incorporate the requirements of this document as part of their individual conformance requirements.

In addition, this document provides information regarding the applications supported by the cabling channels.
