DEVELOPMENT OF TECHNICAL CODES

Malaysian Technical Standards Forum Bhd (MTSFB) has been designated by the MalaysianCommunications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) to be a forum for Technical Standardsunder Section 184 of the Communications and Multimedia Act 1998 (Part VII, Chapter 3 -Technical Standards).

MTSFB is tasked with the responsibility to prepare the technical codes which may include, butnot limited to, matters as defined under Section 185.

Notwithstanding the above, a technical code may also be determined by the Commission inaccordance with Section 96.

A technical code prepared by the MTSFB or the Commission may include, but is not limitedto, the matters as defined under Section 185 and shall not be effective until it is registered bythe Commission pursuant to Section 95.

FOREWORD

This Technical Code was developed by the Fixed Network Facilities (FNF) Working Group under theMalaysian Technical Standards Forum Bhd (MTSFB) in accordance with Section 185 of theCommunications and Multimedia Act 1998.

The Fixed Network Facilities forms a part of the Technical Standards and Infrastructure Requirements(TSIR) document which serves as guidelines and standards in support of the Uniform Building By-Laws (UBBL). This document as a sub-document of TSIR specifically develops for simpledevelopment properties that only require a basic telecommunication infrastructure. The documentwas prepared with the common understanding and agreement among the Fixed Network Providersrepresentatives in Malaysia.In the context of meeting the needs of telecommunication (fixed network services) users, TSIRaddresses the technical system and infrastructure requirements necessary for having the fixednetwork distribution system equipped in the building. This is important in view of Fixed NetworkServices which are used as a medium for delivery the basic telecommunication service which are theTelephony and Multi Broadband Services to the public / customers.

As stated above, the Fixed Network Facilities in the TSIR: For Simple Development document coverstwo primary objectives:

It outlines the infrastructure requirements (for the purpose of setting up a commonand integrated fixed network distribution system) to consulting engineers, PropertyDevelopers, owners and other responsible parties for the provisions to be madeavailable in the simple development category buildings.

It also provides the minimum technical specifications necessary for the Fixed NetworkTelephony and Multi broadband distribution system to function as required in simpledevelopment buildings.

This Technical Code shall continue to be valid and effective until reviewed or cancelled.

10.Cabling test

10.1 UTP cabling test

10.1.1 Each cable be tested using the UTP Cable testerUTP Test Equipment. All of the item aslisted below must be tested to ensure all the cabling are in good condition and able to supportservices as require by NFP and meet the EIA/TIA 568 standard.

Wiremap Test ,

Performance Test - Return loss, Crosstalk, Cable Attenuation test

Length measurement.

10.1.2 The Test Equipment for system certification should comply with Level IIE-Test Equipment.Level III Test Equipment is recommended. The Test Equipment shall be initialized before use.

10.1.3 Wiremap Test

10.1.3.1 Figure 10-1 below show the sample of wiremap tester to verify cable continuity, short, openand crossed wire pairs.

Figure 10-1 : Wiremap Tester

10.1.3.2 Wiremapping is a simple test that confirms that each wire is hooked up correctly, with noopens or shorts. Each pair must be connected to the correct pins at the plugs and jacks,

with good contacts in the terminations. A "wiremapper" is basically a continuity checker thatdetermines if pins are correctly connected.

10.1.3.3 Length measurement - Since EIA/TIA568 cables must be less than 90 meters (296 feet) inthe permanent link and 100 meters in the channel (328 feet), cable length must be testedusing the Time Domain Reflectometer (TDR) or Cable Certifier

10.1.4 Performance Test

10.1.4.1 To verify the performance of the UTP cable, generally LAN Verifier Equipment is highlyrecommended. This test is to ensure the prepared cabling are able to support higherbandwidth service.

10.1.4.2 Performance testing for attenuation, crosstalk, etc. requires testing over the full frequencyrange of the cable. The frequency range for each cable type is:

Cat 3: 16 MHz

Cat 5/5e: 100 MHz

Cat 6: 250 Mhz

Cat 6A: 500 MHz


32/51


24

10.1.4.3 Attenuation test requires a tester at each end of the cable, one to send and one to receive,then one of them will calculate the loss and record it. There are pass fail criteria for thecable at Cat 3, 4, 5, 5e, 6 and 6A max frequencies. Here is how a typical cable attenuationchanges with frequency.

10.1.4.4 Cat 5e /6 testers measure crosstalk from one pair to all three other pairs for each pair and

compare it to the 568 specs, giving a pass/fail result. Some also calculate "ACR" orattenuation/crosstalk ratio, as it is a measure of how big the crosstalk signal is to theattenuated signal at the receiver. You want this number as big as possible, as it is anindication of the signal to noise ratio.

Figure 10-2: Permanent Link Testing Configuration10.1.5 UTP TestingProcedures

Test shall be done on every single cable from point to point (patch panel to TO).

At the end of the installation, structured cabling cable pairs of Cat 5 cables shallbe tested from the Telecommunications Point to the telecommunication outlet(TO).

Permanent link configuration is as follows

For Cat 5e cables, the following Permanent link test shall be performed:

a) Insertion Lossb) NEXTc) Powersum NEXTd) ELFEXTe) Powersum ELFEXTf) Return lossg) Delay Skewh) Attenuation to Crosstalk ratio (ACR).

10.1.5.1 Any pairs not meeting the requirements of the standard shall be brought into compliance.

10.2 Fibre Cabling Test

10.2.1 For the building the been installed with the fibre cabling, each connection of the fibre must betested to ensure it is in working condition and meeting the NFP specification. Generally, onlyInsertion Loss (IL) test require to be performed. NFP may require additional test depend ontheir requirement.

10.2.2 Insertion Loss (IL) test is performed to measure the total loss between FTB and FWS. Itshould inclusive of the connector loss inside the FTB and FWS, cable loss and also any

jointing loss between that connector. IL is measured in dB unit and the allowable IL lossbetween FTB and FWS is 1.6dB.

10.2.3 To measure IL, generally the test gear as below is used:

Optical Loss Test Set (OLTS)

Power Meter together with Light Source

Optical Time Domain Reflectometer (OTDR)

10.2.4 All the cabling should be connected as shown inFigure 10-3 below to perform the IL test:

Figure 10-3 : Insertion Loss (IL) Setup

10.2.5 Each fibre cores test result must be captured and presented during service activation orinfrastructure acceptance process. Test result must be recorded using the format as show in

1.5. The mounting of the Disconnection Module should be designed for a universal use, Profilerods and Back-mount frames.

1.6. The contact tags are arranged at an angle of 45 degrees to the axis of the wire. Using theSensor Insertion Tool, the wire is forced open into the contact slot between the two flexiblecontact tags.

1.7. The tags open in an axial direction and are twisted at the same time. This action displaces theinsulation and the tags grip the central conductor at two staggered points.

1.8. Owing to the dislocation of the material at the connection and the restoring forces of thecontact tags, a permanent gas tight area is created between the tags and the conductor.

1.9. Additional protection of the contact area, against shock and tensile forces is provided byplastic clamping ribs, which grip the wire on both sides thus maintaining the mechanicalintegrity of the joint.

1.10. The terminal module shall have necessary in-built arrangement for fanning out cable pairs insequential order.

1.11. The IDC contacts of cable wires & jumper wires shall be available from front side of theterminal block for easy handling. The termination of wires shall have to be carried out from

the front side of the terminal module.1.12. It shall be possible when necessary to add a parallel wire to any terminated jumper wire

in a module. All IDC connection shall be made using proper insertion tool termed as SensorInsertion Tool.

1.13. When needed, single pair protection with over-voltage and over-current or protectionmagazines with over-voltage should be applied on the modules.
