structured cabling, the cabling divided into three
subsections:
1. fibre-to-
the-desk, the floor distributor and terminal device are
linked fibre optic cable.
2.
In buildings with external light-
ning protection system, internal
protection against partial lightning
currents and surge voltages is
needed. This
offers higher data rates than conventional copper
cables and also less susceptible interference
from electromagnetic impulses.
Various transmission media are used here.
3. For fast transmission rates to
be achieved, fibre optic technology often used as
the transmitting medium the primary cabling. Secondary cabling
The secondary cabling connects the individual floors
of the building with one another (vertical). Here, too, fibre optic technology used the
transfer medium. Primary cabling can character-
ised long cable lengths due the locations dif-
ferent buildings.
Where building fitted with external lightning pro-
tection, lightning currents and surge volt-
ages pose particularly high risk.
Lightning and surge protection measures should be
installed ensure that this infrastructure remains free
from faults and not destroyed powerful currents. the separation
distance (s) not maintained, there risk arcing
from the external conductor system onto internal
cables running along the building wall, for example in
dado trunking. The floor
distributors are directly linked the building distribut-
or and, the same time, offer connection opportunit-
ies for the various terminal devices/connections sock-
ets. Primary cabling

Chapter The internal lightning protection system
. However, the most wide-
spread option the classic connection via Twisted
Pair cable. Tertiary cabling
In tertiary cabling, fibre optic cables can used as
the transmission medium alternative copper
network cabling. The connection point the build-
ing distributor (BD). The speed the connection also
plays important role. The tertiary cabling the cabling that
links terminal devices/connection sockets with floor
distributors within floor the building (horizontal)
