1 Scope
When used together with EN 50290 and EN 50289 this European standard covers cables for
instrumentation, equipment and information technology cabling applications.
Cables, for information technology cabling systems, covered by this standard are suitable for
use in digital and analogue data systems meeting the requirements, for example, of EN 50090,
EN 50098-1, EN 50098-2 and EN 50173.
Instrumentation cables, covered by this standard, are suitable for connecting instruments and
control systems for analogue or digital signal transmission.
When subjected to voltages greater than 50 V a.c or 75 V d.c. but less than 500 V a.c. or
750 V d.c., cables covered by this standard shall meet the essential requirements of the LVD.
Due to current limitation related to the conductor cross sectional area, they are not intended for
direct connection to mains electricity supply or other low impedance sources.
Cabling elements as defined in 4.3 of this standard may be incorporated in hybrid construction
cables together with coaxial or optical fibre cabling elements.
2 Normative references

3 Definitions
For the purposes of this European Standard, the definitions given in EN 50290-1-2 and the
following apply:
3.1
horizontal cable
cable suitable for connecting a floor distributor to a telecommunications outlet. It is suitable for
horizontal installation in ducts, trunking, suspended floors and ceiling cavities
3.2
building backbone cable
cable suitable for connecting a building distributor to a floor distributor and may also connect
floor distributors in the same building. It is suitable for horizontal installation or vertical
installation between floors provided the cable has adequate mechanical strength
NOTE Horizontal cables as defined in 3.1 may also be used as building backbone cables provided that they have
adequate mechanical strength and fire performance characteristics.
