Overview
EN 50174-1:2018/A1:2020 - Information technology - Cabling installation - Part 1: Installation specification and quality assurance - is a European Standard that defines requirements for planning, documenting, installing and assuring the quality of information technology cabling. It applies to all types of IT cabling, including generic cabling systems designed in accordance with the EN 50173 series. Amendment A1 (published July 2020) corrects remote powering requirements and clarifies test sampling for alien (exogenous) crosstalk.
Key topics
- Installation specification: requirements for how cabling installations should be specified to meet performance and safety goals.
- Quality assurance documentation and procedures: documentation needed for verification, acceptance testing and record-keeping during installation.
- Documentation and administration: labeling, record management and administrative controls for cabling life‑cycle management.
- Operation and maintenance: procedures for maintaining performance over time, including handling of changes and extensions.
- Testing and sampling: updated guidance on minimum sample sizes for alien crosstalk testing (Table F.2 in the amendment), with sample-size rules that scale by population (e.g., specific ranges and ROUNDUP(0.1 × N) guidance).
- Remote powering (Category RP1): amendment corrects and clarifies calculation and documentation expectations when cabling supports remote powering methods.
- Optical fibre testing: editorial updates to table numbering and test parameter references for fibre cabling.
Applications
This standard is used to ensure consistent, verifiable cabling installations across commercial buildings, data centres, educational campuses, healthcare facilities and industrial sites. Typical uses:
- Creating installation specifications and acceptance criteria for cabling contractors
- Developing test plans and sampling strategies for field verification (including alien crosstalk testing)
- Implementing documentation and administration systems for moves/adds/changes
- Planning and documenting installations that carry remote powering (PoE / remote power) to manage safety and compatibility
- Supporting QA processes used by installers, system integrators, consultants and facilities managers
Who should use it
- Telecommunications/cabling installers and contractors
- Network designers and consultants
- QA managers and test technicians
- Facilities and IT managers responsible for lifecycle administration
- Specifiers and procurement teams writing installation contracts
Related standards
- EN 50173 series - generic cabling system design (associated systems)
- ISO 2859 - sampling procedures for inspection by attributes (added to the bibliography by Amendment A1)
EN 50174-1:2018/A1:2020 is essential for anyone specifying, installing or validating IT cabling to recognized European quality and testing practices, especially where alien crosstalk sampling and remote powering controls are relevant.
