TIA Expands TIA/EIA-570-A's Scope

摘要

Just last month I informed you of the Telecommunications Industry Association's (TIA's) efforts to develop a specification for Building Automation Systems (BAS) for commercial buildings. This soon-to-be-published specification represents a significant departure for TIA-TR 42 in addressing cabling and system requirements outside their area of expertise of voice, data and video (VDV). This departure has been extended beyond commercial buildings into residential cabling with the approval of two addenda to TIA/EIA-570-A Residential Telecommunications Cabling Standard and the balloting of a third.
