The Structured Cabling Studio application is designed for calculation of necessary meterage of installation cable for design of a structured cabling, in accordance with the requirements of the ISO/IEC 11801 international standard. The choice is given the options to calculate the required cable length both with and without considering the cable length in the one cable hank (reel). Calculating of the required cable length with considering the cable length in the one hank will take is consider of the number of cable drops that can be made from a one cable hank.
Calculation of the necessary cable meterage without considering of hanks is taken on formula:
(a + b) / 2 ⋅ c ⋅ d ⋅ e
Where a - minimum length of permanent link;
b - maximum length of permanent link;
c - techological reserve coefficient;
d - workplaces count;
e - ports count per one workplace
Calculation of the requried cable hanks (reels) count is taken on formula:
⌈(a ⋅ b / ⌊(c ÷ (((d + e) ÷ 2) ⋅ f))⌋)⌉
Where a - workplaces count;
b - ports count per one workplace;
c - meterage in one cable hank;
d - minimum length of permanent link;
e - maximum length of permanent link;
f - technological reserve coefficient.
Calculation of the necessary cable meterage with considering of hanks is taken, respectively, by obtaining the product of the cable meterage in the one hank and the hanks count.
The application is designed for calculation of necessary cable meterage for design of a structured cabling, but it can be used for design of a different nature cable systems, for example, electrical cable systems.
You also may obtain the telecommunication cable selection recommendations in consider with parameters of the planned structured cabling architecture. Select for this the necessary obtain recommendations parameters on the calculation page, which are consider with parameters of designed cabling system.
