Overview
The ANSI/TIA/EIA 606-A Standardspecifies administration for a generic telecommunications cabling system that will support a multi-product, multi-vendor environment. It provides a uniform administration approach that is independent of applications, which may change several times throughout the life of the telecommunications infrastructure. It establishes guidelines for owners, end users, manufacturers, consultants, contractors,designers, installers, and facilities administrators involved in the administration of the telecommunications infrastructure. Use of this Standard is intended to increase the value of the system owner’s investment in the infrastructure by reducing the labor expense of maintaining the system, extending the useful economic life of the system, and providing effective service to users.

Classes ofAdministration
There are four classes of administration that all cabling systems fall within.

Class 1 is for systems within a single building having only one
Telecommunications Room (TR) that all workstation cabling runs to. The TR, Horizontal Links (HL’s) and Telecommunications Main Grounding Busbar (TMGB) are required to be labeled and administered. If the system owner wishes to documentpathways or firestopping locations, Class 2 administration should be used.

Class 2 is for systems within a single building that are served by
multiple TR’s. Class 2 includes administration for backbone cabling, multi-element grounding & bonding, firestopping as well as all the items within Class 1.

Class 3 is for systems spanning multiple buildings, known as a
campus environment. Class 3...
