The organizations in this update
• ISO/IEC – ISO/IEC JTC 1 SC 25 WG 3 – international
telecommunications cabling standards
• TIA (Telecommunications Industry Association) TR-
42 – US and Canadian national telecommunications
cabling standards
• BICSI – international
i i l standards
d d andd guidelines
id li ffor
information technology systemsThe organizations in this update
• ISO/IEC JTC 1 SC 25 includes experts from 29
countries & observers from 18 other countries
• TIA TR-42 includes experts from 60+ US and
Canadian organizations
• BICSI Standards includes 400+ members, mostly
from the end-user
end user and consultant communityThe organizations in this update • All three organizations are busier than they ever have been developing new standards & updating existing ones
Whyy you
y should care about standards
• Ensures that the cabling system works properly
• Ensures cabling system is easy to use and maintain
• Combined knowledge of many of the best industry
experts in their respective fields
• Standards are an inexpensive way for you to learn
from these experts and apply their knowledge to
yyour projects
