Ta evropski standard določa:
a) strukturo in konfiguracijo hrbteničnih kabelskih podsistemov univerzalnih sistemov polaganja kablov v vrstah objektov in/ali prostorov, opredeljenih v drugih standardih iz skupine standardov EN 50173;
b) zahteve za kanalni prenos in okoljske lastnosti, ki so v podporo standardom iz skupine standardov EN 50173 (pri čemer ti standardi upoštevajo zahteve, določene v standardih za uporabo, navedenih v dodatku F);
c) zahteve za zmogljivost povezave, ki so v podporo standardom iz skupine standardov EN 50173;
d) uveljavitev sklicev o hrbteničnih kablih, ki so v podporo standardom iz skupine standardov EN 50173;
e) zahteve za zmogljivost komponent, ki so v podporo standardom iz skupine standardov EN 50173;
f) preskusne postopke za preverjanje skladnosti z zahtevami za zmogljivost kabelskega prenosa iz skupine standardov EN 50173.
Varnostne zahteve in zahteve za elektromagnetno združljivost (EMC) ne spadajo na področje uporabe tega evropskega standarda ter so obravnavane v drugih standardih in predpisih. Vendar so lahko informacije iz tega evropskega standarda v pomoč pri izpolnjevanju teh standardov in predpisov.
