Coaxial jumper cables are not required to be plenum-rated. Coaxial jumper cables shall be press-on/friction fit type. Screw-on connectors shall not be allowed. Coaxial jumper cables shall be compatible with the building CATV outlet connectors.
Security at trunk line taps (IF required) 1. All connectors shall be equipped and installed with security shields.
Unused taps 1. At any point in the system, all unused taps shall be terminated into precision, passive 75-Ohm terminators of appropriate size and wattage. Security provisions at trunk line taps shall apply.
SYSTEM PERFORMANCE AND TESTING All aspects of Section 1.8 BROADBAND NETWORK SPECIFICATIONS shall be tested and documented.
Three sets of written test results shall be provided to WSU Computing & Network Services (C&IT) in 3-ring binders and on CD-ROM. System testing shall be performed by an independent testing company not affiliated with the System Contractor. System testing and methods shall be approved in advance by WSU Computing & Network Services (C&IT). All system testing shall be supervised by WSU Computing & Network Services (C&IT) System acceptance testing shall be subject to WSU Computing & Network Services (C&IT) inspection and approval of installation, workmanship, products, performance testing and documentation. RELATED SYSTEMS AND FACILITIES (IF REQUIRED) Inter/Intra building signal transport system 1. Provide a fiber optic CATV transport system to deliver all channels, whether active or not, across the specified bandwidth from the existing MDF. System shall be compatible and shall match the existing WSU transmit and receive systems. Substitutions shall not be allowed. The transport system shall feed the existing CATV programming to the new CATV broadband system for distribution to all CATV outlets. Signals shall be transported between buildings via the WSU single mode fiber optic backbone network. Signals shall be interfaced to the WSU fiber optic backbone network via WSU fiber optic patch panels located in each buildings MDF. The transmitting end of the system shall have a minimum six fiber optic outputs for use with the inter-building transport system, monitoring systems and for future expansion. The system shall have an auxiliary input to allow delivery of programming from remote locations elsewhere on campus via the WSU single mode fiber optic backbone network. Fiber optic patch panels and patch cords shall be provided to interface all system inputs and outputs to the WSU fiber optic patch panels. Performance of the transport system shall meet or exceed the specifications of the CATV system specified within Section 17500 and
18.4 A.
shall not impair, limit, change or reduce the quality or specifications of the existing CATV systems. 9. All fiber optic equipment shall be rack-mounted or backboard mounted. Mounting methods shall be approved in advance by WSU C&IT Network Services. Fiber optic transmitter power levels shall be designed with sufficient headroom to compensate for practical and theoretical losses within the WSU fiber optic network and any passive optical splitters. All singlemode fiber-optic connectors and ferrules shall be SC/APC. Color shall be green.
Local monitoring system 1. 2. 3. Provide a CATV monitoring television set within the MDF similar to the existing set in the WSU Headend. The monitoring television set shall be rack mounted and shall be capable of viewing all CATV channels, whether active or not. The CATV monitoring television shall be rack-mounted in the building MDF or its CATV distribution point.
