• Always test every installed segment with a cable tester. “Toning” alone is not an
acceptable test.
• Always install jacks so as to prevent dust and other contaminants from settling on the
contacts. The contacts of the jack should face up on the flush mounted plates, or
left/right/down on surface mount boxes.
• Always leave extra slack on the cables, neatly coiled in the ceiling or nearest concealed
location. Leave at least five feet at the work outlet side and 10 feet at the patch panel side.
• Choose either 568A or 568B wiring standard before beginning. Wire all jacks and patch
panels for the same wiring scheme. Don’t mix 568A and 568B wiring in the same
installation.
• Always obey all local and national fire and building codes. Be sure to firestop all cables
that penetrate a firewall. Use plenum rated cable where it is required.
