What are the components of integrated wiring?

　　Integrated wiring is a modular and highly flexible building information tranSMission channel designed to connect voice equipment, data equipment, switching equipment and various control equipment, and interconnect with external communication networks. The content of integrated wiring mainly includes the following aspects:

　　System composition

　　Integrated cabling systems are usually composed of multiple subsystems, each with its own unique functions, which together build an efficient, stable and reliable information transmission network. These subsystems include:

　　Workspace subsystem: Responsible for providing sockets and horizontal cables, and installing adapters to support the needs of various devices. The workspace subsystem is the connection area of the user's end point devices, including sockets, connection jumpers, and adapters.

　　The wiring subsystem is responsible for arranging the wires from the socket to the weak well to ensure the smooth transmission of the signal. The wiring subsystem is the connection cable between the information socket in the work area and the Distribution Frame in the floor wiring room.

　　Trunk subsystem: Usually arranged in a weak well or a machine room, it is composed of cables and is responsible for connecting the equipment in the machine room to the external network. Trunk subsystem is the connection part of the main cable in the building, including vertical trunk and horizontal trunk.

　　Equipment subsystem: As a centralized equipment area, it connects the common equipment of the system to ensure efficient data exchange. The equipment subsystem is the area in the building for installing and managing equipment, such as switches, servers, etc.

　　Building Complex Subsystem: Covers the cables and associated hardware between buildings or buildings to achieve interconnection between buildings. Some materials list the incoming line subsystem separately, which is located at the building entrance, protects and manages the cables entering the room from the outside, ensuring safe and smooth signal transmission. The building complex subsystem can be regarded as an extension of the functions of the incoming line subsystem.

　　Management subsystem: It is the part that manages and maintains the wiring system, including distribution frames, jumpers, labels, etc. There are also materials that list the telecommunications room (including management, work and equipment wiring areas, responsible for the management and maintenance of wiring equipment in the building) as one of the subsystems.

　　II. Materials and equipment involved

　　Integrated cabling systems cover many types of cables and connection hardware, as well as associated electrical protection equipment. These include:

　　Cable: twisted pair (twisted pair), twisted pair symmetrical cable (UTP), coaxial cable, fiber optic cable, etc. Among them, fiber optic cable has become the first choice for high-speed data transmission due to its long transmission distance, high speed and large capacity.

　　Connecting hardware: distribution frame, connectors, sockets, etc. As a key device connecting the horizontal subsystem and the vertical subsystem, the distribution frame realizes flexible jumping of the line through jumpers.

　　Electrical protection equipment: used to protect wiring systems from electrical interference and damage.

　　III. Design and installation steps

　　The design and installation of integrated wiring is a complex and delicate process that typically involves the following steps:

　　Site investigation: Examine the building structure, spatial layout, functional zoning, etc., and document factors that may affect wiring, such as wall materials, beam and column positions, etc.

　　Clear requirements: Communicate with relevant personnel to determine network type, bandwidth requirements, number and distribution of end point devices, special function requirements, etc.

　　Select the wiring standard: According to the requirements and future development considerations, select the appropriate wiring standard, such as Cat6, Cat6a, etc.

　　Determine the topology: Depending on the layout and function of the building, decide on a star, tree, or other topology.

　　Plan the trunk line and horizontal wiring: Design the main cable path from the equipment room to the wiring room of each floor and the wiring room of the floor to the work area, and determine the wiring method and path from the information socket of the work area to the wiring room of the floor.

　　Select cables and connectors: Select reliable quality cables, patch panels, modules, jumpers, etc. according to standards and performance requirements.

　　Determine the location of the wiring room and equipment room: to facilitate management and maintenance, and to meet space, heat dissipation, and other requirements.

　　Design weak current bridges and pipelines: plan a reasonable bridge and pipeline orientation to ensure safe cable laying and easy maintenance.

　　Draw detailed wiring diagrams: including floor plans, system diagrams, etc., clearly marking key information such as cable direction and equipment location.

　　Construction and installation: Carry out construction and installation work according to the design plan.

　　Testing and acceptance: Test the wiring system to ensure that the performance meets the requirements and conduct acceptance.

　　IV. Precautions

　　In the process of comprehensive wiring, the following aspects need to be taken into account:

　　Cable management: Ensure that cables are laid neatly and orderly in bridges and pipes to avoid crossing and entanglement.

　　Labeling and recording: Identify and record each cable and connector to facilitate subsequent management and maintenance.

　　Safe construction: Adhere to safe operating procedures to ensure the personal safety of construction personnel and equipment safety.

　　Environmental protection and energy conservation: Focus on environmental protection and energy conservation in material selection and design to reduce environmental impact.

　　To sum up, integrated wiring is a complex and delicate process involving multiple subsystems and multiple links. Through reasonable design and installation, an efficient, stable and reliable information transmission network can be built to meet the needs of various network applications.
