INSTALLATION PROCEDURES - CABLE REQUIREMENTS
A.
Any trunk cable run between server location and IDF’s is to be unshielded twisted
pair Cat 5 or better. This trunk cable is to be punched on both ends with 66 block
and labeled. IDF locations may be used for remote power supply locations per
District. IDF locations are to be used to keep video cable runs under 90 meters.
B.
All video cable pulled directly from the termination location (66 block) to camera
and/or head-end location to camera is to be Cat 5e or better. A single 18/2 power
cable will also be pulled to each fixed camera from either the server location to
camera or punch block location (IDF) to camera.
C.
There shall be a single Cat 5 cable and a single RG-59 95% copper braid pulled from
the server location to the principal/dean’s office for monitor and joystick use. There
shall also be single RG-59 95% copper braid pulled from server location to main
office for public view monitor.
D.
The RG-59 coax monitor cables and the Cat 5 joystick cable require an outlet, jack
and cover plate. Also provide power outlet for each monitor concealed behind the
monitor location.
E.

be black and strapped with a loose tie so as not to pinch the cable sheath and with
enough slack to get snips and fingers between tie and cable. The end of the tie
should be cut off after strapping.
G.
PTZ cameras require the local power supply (SI-PTZ-PWR1) to be mounted within
200 feet of the camera and a single 12/2 power cable (stranded) pulled from power
supply to PTZ camera. PTZ power supplies are contractor supplied cord and plug.
