What is BS EN 50602 - Generic cabling systems about?
BS EN 50602 discusses generic cabling systems. Generic cabling systems is a complete system of cabling and associated hardware, which provides a comprehensive telecommunications infrastructure. BS EN 50602 describes straight unscreened patch cords and patch cords and application-specific cords enabling the construction of Class E channels as defined in the EN 50173 series of standards. BS EN 50602 describes cords of which the transmission characteristics are up to 250 MHz for digital communication. The test configuration is detailed in EN 61935-2.
Who is BS EN 50602 - Generic cabling systems for?
BS EN 50602 on generic cabling systems is useful for:
- Telecommunication component manufacturers
- Telecommunication equipment manufacturers
- Design engineers
- Quality control personnel
Why should you use BS EN 50602 - Generic cabling systems?
This infrastructure serves a wide range of uses, such as providing telephone service or transmitting data through a computer network. It should not be device-dependent. BS EN 50602 provides the normative references, terms and definitions and detailed specifications for unscreened cords for class E channels. Unscreened cables usually form a single circuit to cancel out EMI from external sources. Unscreened cables are easy to manufacture and also cost-effective, as the sheath/shield is mostly made of pure aluminium or copper, which in turn, reduces the cost of the wire. Unscreened cables contain only the twisted pairs with the main outer sheath/insulation. Using BS EN 50602 you can describe straight unscreened patch cords and patch cords and application-specific cords enabling the construction of Class E channels as defined in the EN 50173 series of standards.
