The integrated cabling system is a set of standard cabling systems, integrating all the equipment of voice, data, image and monitoring, and inserting various equipment terminal plugs into standard information sockets. That is, any socket can connect different types of equipment, such as microcomputer, printer, telephone, fax machine, etc. It is very flexible and practical.

The integrated cabling system is mainly used to connect voice, closed-circuit television, security system, building automation management system, data communication equipment and other information management systems to each other, as well as to connect these equipment with external communication networks. The topology structure of structured cabling system adopts star-shaped structure, which has good compatibility, perfect reliability, high flexibility, advancement, and excellent performance-price ratio.

The integrated cabling system adopts modular design, and is physically star-shaped and logically bus configuration, which not only facilitates system connection and expansion, but also maintains a high degree of flexibility. At the same time, it can also ensure the high rate of information transmission. It conforms to commercial building cabling standard and common communication standard of EIA/TIA568 in standard. It is compatible with products and equipment of many manufacturers and supports the transmission of various analog signals, digital signals, voice, data and images, as well as the application of control signals and weak current signals.

The integrated cabling system includes shielded and unshielded twisted-pair and fiber-optical transmission media, connecting jumpers, adapters, plug, sockets and supporting hardware. These components have been thoroughly tested to ensure the best transmission performance and meet the speed requirements of different information transmission, such as ISDN, ATM, gigabit network, etc.

The structured integrated cabling system adopts modular and hierarchical star-shaped topology structure, which can be generally divided into six subsystems.

The subsystem in work area consists of the devices connected to the information socket by the subscriber terminal equipment, including assembly cords, connectors and expansion cords required for connection. The information socket has various types such as wall, floor, table and soft foundation, and the standard has various types of single, double and multi-hole RJ45/RJ11.

The horizontal cabling subsystem connects cables from the floor distribution frame to the information sockets in each work area, which usually are on the same floor. Usually, 5E or 6 types of 8-core 4-pair twisted-pairs are used. 5E or 6 types of twisted-pairs are composed of 8 pieces of 24AWG ( 0.50mm ) or 23AWG ( 0.57 ) copper wires, which meet or exceed EIA/TIA-568 standards.

The trunk subsystem provides the route of the main cable of the building, is the nerve center of the integrated cabling system, and realizes the connection between the main distribution frame and the intermediate distribution frame. It is generally recommended to use large twisted pair cable and optical fiber as backbone transmission media.

The management subsystem consists of floor distribution frames. Its main function is to connect the vertical trunk cable with the horizontal cabling subsystem of each floor.

The subsystem between the equipment connects trunks crossings and cabling cross-connections to application system equipment. It is composed of cables and connectors in the equipment room and related supporting hardware, which connects various equipment of public system equipment.

The first part is the computer room where network equipment can be placed and it can connect to servers, hosts and others on the network equipment; The second part is the communication center, where the PABX and the main distribution frame of terminating PABX and vertical trunk cables are placed.
