Standard UTP <strong>Wiring</strong> Conventions<br />
Horizontal UTP Cable and Patch Cords<br />
• Solid copper 4-pair 24 AWG UTP is specified for distribution cabling. Stranded UTP<br />
is specified for patch cords for flexibility. Shielded cable is not commonly used in the<br />
U.S. Splices bridge taps are not permitted.<br />
• Cable, connectors and patch cords shall be marked with the performance category.<br />
Always match performance categories of cables and components throughout the<br />
infrastructure.<br />
• All cable, cords and connecting hardware shall meet performance requirements<br />
of <strong>ANSI</strong>/<strong>TIA</strong>-<strong>568</strong>-C.2. <strong>Hubbell</strong> assures this compliance with all products and<br />
cable partners.<br />
COLOR CODING:<br />
white-blue/blue<br />
white-orange/orange<br />
white-green/green<br />
white-brown/brown<br />
Backbone UTP Cable<br />
• Solid copper 4-pair and 25-pair UTP is specified. An overall shield is optional.<br />
• Performance category markings and compliance to <strong>ANSI</strong>/<strong>TIA</strong>-<strong>568</strong>-C.1 and <strong>568</strong>-C.2 is required.<br />
• Circuits with incompatible signals should be partitioned in separate binder groups. Prior to making shared sheath circuit<br />
assignments, consult the equipment manufacturer for signal characteristics (i.e., frequency, amplitude, voltage, etc.).<br />
• Tip conductor insulation colors are matched to the binder group. Ring conductor insulation colors correspond the pair.<br />
