GENERIC CABLING FOR CUSTOMER PREMISES –

Part 9902: End-to-end link configurations

FOREWORD
1) ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) and IEC (the International Electrotechnical
Commission) form the specialized system for worldwide standardization. National bodies that are members of
ISO or IEC participate in the development of International Standards through technical committees established
by the respective organization to deal with particular fields of technical activity. ISO and IEC technical
committees collaborate in fields of mutual interest. Other international organizations, governmental and non-
governmental, in liaison with ISO and IEC, also take part in the work. In the field of information technology,
ISO and IEC have established a joint technical committee, ISO/IEC JTC 1.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC and ISO on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an
international consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation
from all interested IEC National Committees and ISO member bodies.
3) IEC, ISO and ISO/IEC publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted
by IEC National Committees and ISO member bodies in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to
ensure that the technical content of IEC, ISO and ISO/IEC publications is accurate, IEC or ISO cannot be held
responsible for the way in which they are used or for any misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees and ISO member bodies undertake to
apply IEC, ISO and ISO/IEC publications transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and
regional publications. Any divergence between any ISO, IEC or ISO/IEC publication and the corresponding
national or regional publication should be clearly indicated in the latter.
5) ISO and IEC do not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. ISO or IEC are not responsible
for any services carried out by independent certification bodies.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or ISO or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual
experts and members of their technical committees and IEC National Committees or ISO member bodies for
any personal injury, property damage or other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or
for costs (including legal fees) and expenses arising out of the publication of, use of, or reliance upon, this
ISO/IEC publication or any other IEC, ISO or ISO/IEC publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this ISO/IEC publication may be the subject
of patent rights. ISO and IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
The main task of the joint technical committee is to prepare International Standards. However,
the joint technical committee may propose the publication of a Technical Report when it has
collected data of a different kind from that which is normally published as an International
Standard, for example "state of the art".
ISO/IEC TR 11801-9902, which is a Technical Report, was prepared by subcommittee 25:
Interconnection of information technology equipment, of ISO/IEC joint technical committee 1:
Information technology.
This Technical Report has been approved by vote of the member bodies, and the voting
results may be obtained from the address given on the second title page.
This document has been drafted in accordance with the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The list of all currently available parts of the ISO/IEC 11801 series, under the general title
Information technology — Generic cabling for customer premises, can be found on the IEC
website.

INTRODUCTION
One major difference between a standard generic cabling installation and an industrial cabling
as also other application areas of cabling is how it is installed. In these areas it is common
practice to deploy cabling channels constructed from one or more cords as described in
1
Annex B and Annex C of ISO/IEC 11801-3:— . In addition, the cords are field terminated
rather than pre-terminated into plugs elsewhere. As a result, these cords might have problems
associated with the termination process which are not identified during channel verification
testing in accordance with ISO/IEC 11801-1 since such testing excludes the free connectors
at the end of the channel.
This Technical Report provides definitions for, and examples of, such cabling
implementations, described as end-to-end (E2E) links. It also provides performance
specifications to support Class D and Class E balanced cabling channels of ISO/IEC 11801-1
which include the impact of the terminating connectors that may be used for performance
verification using the test method of ISO/IEC 14763-4.

or two back-to-back jacks meeting the distance specifications defined by IEC 61918 for a
specific transmission class.
4 Specifications
The specifications for an end-to-end link include the following.
a) The configurations and structure should meet the specifications outlined in Clause 5.
b) The interfaces to the cabling should meet the specifications of ISO/IEC 11801-1 or
ISO/IEC 11801-3 with respect to mating interfaces and performance.
c) Connecting hardware at other places in the cabling structure should meet the performance
specifications specified in ISO/IEC 11801-1.
d) Installation should be performed in accordance with IEC 61918 and ISO/IEC 14763-2.
.
e) The E2E links should meet the specifications of Clause 6

of installed cabling to determine its capacity to support the applications described by
IEC 61918 and ISO/IEC 11801-1.
g) The performance of end-to-end link as specified in Clause 6 should support the channel
specifications specified in ISO/IEC 11801-1. Performance can be achieved by one of the
following when the additional connections are included in the test results:
1) an E2E link design and implementation ensuring that the prescribed transmission
performance is met;
2) attachment of appropriate components to a permanent link or CP link meeting the
prescribed performance class of ISO/IEC 11801-1;

3) using compatible cabling components that meet the specifications of ISO/IEC 11801-3
and ISO/IEC 11801-1.
5 Examples of end-to-end link configurations
There are multiple configurations of E2E links that are identified by the number of mated
connections in the configuration including those at the ends of the E2E link. This document
describes two-, three-, four-, five-, and six-connection E2E links as illustrated in Figure 2 to

6 Performance specifications when using end-to-end link limits
6.1 General
The performance specifications of 6.3 are based on the number of connections comprising the
E2E link. These specifications are based on the modelling techniques described in
ISO/IEC TR 11801-9903 using the balanced cabling components of Category 5 and
Category 6 of ISO/IEC 11801-1 to provide the specification for Class D and Class E,
respectively.
The worst case limits of 6.2 show the values calculated using the formulae of 6.3 to 6.8 for six
connections as in Figure 4 and Figure 5.
The specifications for two- and three-connection E2E links are based on the two- and
three-connection permanent link specifications of ISO/IEC 11801-1.

---------------------- Page: 13 ----------------------
– 12 – ISO/IEC TR 11801-9902:2017
© IEC 2017
The specifications for four-, five- and six-connection E2E links are based on the matrix model
of ISO/IEC TR 11801-9903. For these E2E links the model was used to examine the
difference between traditional channels and a similar topology of E2E links. This difference
was then added to the channel limits provided by ISO/IEC 11801-1 to provide the E2E link
limits.
In 6.2 the limits for the E2E links for Class D and Class E are provided.
6.2 Worst case limits
Table 1 and Table 2 contain the worst case limits for E2E links containing six connections for
Class D and Class E, respectively. The tables summarize the values in 6.3 to 6.8. 6.9 to 6.15
contain additional parameters and limits.
