6 www.commscope.com CommScope Infrastructure Academy For those interested in additional training in the Data Centers environment, the CommScope Infrastructure Academy offers certified training courses on network infrastructure solutions throughout the world. Training formats include instructor-led classroom training, as well as online training via webcast, video and self-paced assessments. The CommScope Infrastructure Academy offers local language courses, in both high-quality conference facilities and online, and also offers customized training programs and consultancy relating to the latest development in structured cabling design and installation practices, ANSI's TIA, ISO/IEC or CENELEC standards, choice and selection of products, market trends, innovations and statistics - providing support, and competence assessment, for strategy and migration. The SP8800 SYSTIMAX Data Center Design and Engineering Course provides in-depth training on data center design including standards, architecture and the appropriate media for high data rate applications. Available online, it can be taken individually or as part of the Passport Package, which provides access to a full array of training courses, covering installation and design, and including overall structured cabling solutions, as well as specialist training in optical fiber, intelligent solutions buildings, and more. For more information, please visit the CommScope Infrastructure Academy online at www.commscopetraining.com.
2. Standards And Regulations The best way to start the design of a new Data Center is by reviewing the codes and standards for Data Centers. Construction Codes Applicable to Data Centers As our main focus is on the Structured Cabling System (SCS), a thorough discussion of the construction codes that affect the construction and installation of facilities such as Data Centers is outside the scope of this document. However, here is a list of the basic applicable codes. Contact your regional code body for more detailed information. NFPA 13 Standard for the Installation of Sprinkler Systems NFPA 70 (aka NEC) National Electrical Code NFPA 75 – Standard for the Protection of Information Technology Equipment For Canada: CSA CEC C22.1 Canadian Electrical Code Standards Applicable to Data Centers ANSI/TIA-942-2005 Telecommunications Infrastructure Standard for Data Centers is the North American Standard for design and implementation of Data Centers, providing requirements and guidelines for the design and installation of Data Centers and computer rooms. The standard presents infrastructure topology for connecting various elements and cabling system configurations found in data centers. Also addressed are floor layouts related to achieving proper balance between rack density, manageability and security. Data centers are categorized according to the domain they serve: • private domain – enterprise (private corporations, institutions or government agencies) • public domain – internet (traditional service providers, unregulated competitive providers and related commercial operators) • co-location – multiuser Standard TIA-942 specifies the minimum requirements for telecommunications infrastructure for single tenant enterprise centers and multi-tenant hosting centers. The topology recommended is applicable to any size data center. TIA-942 is composed of 8 chapters and 9 informative annexes, covering all aspects of Data Center design and implementation. 1. Scope 2.
