    Scope - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    This British Standard specifies requirements for the installation, operation, administration and maintenance of telecommunications equipment and telecommunications cabling, other than cabling specified in BS EN 50174. It also specifies requirements beyond the scope of the BS EN 50174 series of standards for telecommunications equipment.

    It does not cover those aspects of installation that are associated with the transmission of signals in free space between transmitters, receivers or their associated antenna systems (e.g. radio, microwave or satellite).
