®

For compliance with the TIA/EIA-606-A standard, PANDUIT ® has the solution. This brochurewill walk you through the labeling requirements of the standard and introduce you to identification solutions specifically designed to comply with TIA/EIA-606-A. The standard establishes guidelines for owners, end users, manufacturers, consultants, contractors, designers, installers, and facility administrators involved in the administration of the telecommunications infrastructure. Proper identification of your network allows moves, adds, changes, trouble shooting, and repairs to be accomplishedfaster and more efficiently. PANDUIT offers a full line of network connectivity products,labeling products, software, and printers to assist you with TIA/EIA-606-A compliance.

The ULTIMATE ID ™ Network Labeling System featured in this brochure was designed specifically with the TIA/EIA-606-A standard in mind. It includes faceplates, surface mountboxes, patch panels, marker ties, labels for desktop printers, and the PANAC–EA™ LS7 hand-held thermal transfer printer. All ULTIMATE ID hardware uses labels with a common compact height; this not only enhances the appearance of the installation, butalso saves time and money by providing a clear and efficient way to label according to theTIA/EIA-606-A standard. All labels are positioned adjacent to, centered and parallel to themodule they are identifying. The appearance of the installation can be further enhancedby using a consistent font size throughout the installation. The PANAC–EA LS7 printer andPANDUIT desktop labeling software can both be used to mechanically print labels with thesame font.

Labeling Solutions for TIA/EIA-606-A

The TIA/EIA-606-A standard establishes guidelines for owners, end users, manufacturers, consultants,contractors, designers, installers, and facilities administrators involved in the administration of the telecommunications infrastructure.

Four classes of administration are specified in the standard, to accommodate diverse degrees of complexity present in the telecommunications infrastructure. The specifications for each class includerequirements for identifiers, records, and labeling.

Class 1 addresses the administration needs of a premises that is served by a singletelecommunications space (TS) containing its telecommunications equipment.

Required in class 1 administration are identifiers for the TS, any Telecommunications Main GroundingBusbar, and all elements of the horizontal links.

For a copper horizontal link, the elements include:• the connecting hardware (e.g., patch panel port or the section of a punchdown block

terminating a four-pair horizontal cable)• a four-pair horizontal cable• a telecommunications outlet/connector terminating a four-pair horizontal cable in the work area

If a consolidation point (CP) is present:• the segment of four-pair horizontal cable extending from the TS to the CP connecting hardware• the CP connecting hardware or section of a punchdown block terminating a four-pair horizontal cable• the segment of four-pair horizontal cable extending from the CP connecting hardware to the outlet/

connector of a multi-user telecommunications outlet assembly (MUTOA) or to the work area outlet

If a MUTOA is present:• a telecommunications outlet/connector in the MUTOA

For an optical fiber horizontal link, the elements include:• a pair of optical fiber terminations on a patch panel in the TS• a pair of optical fibers in a cable• a pair of optical fiber terminations in the work area• a telecommunications outlet/connector terminating a pair of optical fibers in the work area

If a consolidation point (CP) is present:• the segment of optical fiber cable extending from the TS to the CP connecting hardware.• the CP connecting hardware or section terminating a pair of optical fibers• the segment of optical fiber cable extending from the CP connecting hardware to the outlet/connector of

a multi-user telecommunications outlet assembly (MUTOA) or to the work area outlet.

Class 2 administration provides for telecommunications infrastructure administrationneeds of a single building or tenant that is served by a single or multiple TSs

within a single building. Class 2 administration includes all elements of class 1 administration, plusidentifiers for backbone cabling, multiple-element grounding and bonding systems, and firestopping.

Class 3 administration addresses the needs of a campus, including its buildings andoutside plant elements. Class 3 administration includes all elements of class 2

administration, plus identifiers for buildings and interbuilding cabling. Administration of pathways andspaces, and of outside plant elements is recommended.

Class 4 administration addresses the needs of a multi-site system. Class 4administration includes all elements of class 3 administration, plus an

identifier for each site, and optional identifiers for wide area network connections.

PANDUIT Identification Products can assist you with all the labeling procedures required by this standard.The size, color, and contrast of all labels should be selected to ensure that the identifiers are easily read.Labels should be visible during the installation of and normal maintenance of the infrastructure. Labels shouldbe resistant to the environmental conditions at the point of installation (such as moisture or heat), and shouldhave a design life equal to or greater than that of the labeled component. To maximize legibility, all labels shallbe printed or generated by a mechanical device. Panduit provides everything you need to comply with theTIA/EIA-606-A standard for all of your structured cabling labeling requirements!

Horizontal Link Identifier Labeling Format

A horizontal link identifier shall have a format of fs-an where:f = numeric character(s) identifying the floor of the building occupied

by the Telecommunications Space (TS)s = alpha character(s) uniquely identifying the TS on floor f, or the

building area in which the space is locateda = one to two alpha characters uniquely identifying a single patch

panel, a group of patch panels with sequentially numbered ports,an IDC connector, or a group of IDC connectors, serving as partof the horizontal cross-connect

n = two to four numeric characters designating the port on apanel in the TS, or the section of an IDC connector on which afour pair horizontal cable is terminated in the TS
