This sectional specification covers screened cables, characterised up to 250 MHz, to be used as work area cables to connect a telecommunications outlet to the terminal equipment and for patch cord cables to establish connections on a patch panel as defined in EN 50173.
Work area cables may also be used as patch cord cables in any distributor of a generic building wiring system to interconnect with equipment or to cross-connect between cabling systems.
The electrical, mechanical, transmission and environmental performance characteristics of the screened cables, related to their reference test methods, are detailed.
This sectional specification is to be read in conjunction with EN 50288-1, which contains the essential provisions for its application.
