ISO/IEC 14709-1:1997 ✓ Most Recent

This part of ISO/IEC 14709 defines the requirements for the design and configuration of customer premises cabling for the connection of basic access ISDN equipment.

It defines

• design requirements for ISDN basic access with point-to-point and point-to-multipoint cabling configurations;
• minimum cabling requirements for the installation of new cabling;¹⁾
• criteria for the use of generic cabling;
• criteria for the use of existing cabling.

This part of ISO/IEC 14709 applies to the customer premises cabling. It describes the cabling requirements, needed to transmit ISDN basic access signals as defined by ITU-T Recommendation I.430. The requirements placed on the customer premises cabling are solely those necessary to enable terminal equipment conforming to ITU-T Rec. I.430 to operate into the Network Termination (NT) via configurations defined in this part of ISO/IEC 14709.

1) Although this part of ISO/IEC 14709 specifies the minimum requirements for cabling dedicated to ISDN basic access, it is highly recommended that cabling newly installed complies with ISO/IEC 11801 class B or higher.
