Structured Cabling
Structured cabling complying with EN 50173 describes the tree-structured cabling
of building complexes for information technology purposes regardless of the
applications used. A building is divided into the following areas:
S Primary area
(interconnection of buildings of a campus)
S Secondary area
(interconnection between floors of a building)
S Tertiary area (information technology connectors for the DTEs of a floor)
The structured cabling that can be implemented with the Industrial Ethernet
FastConnect system complies with the tertiary cabling described in EN 50173.
