Chapter Summary
Media installation involves determining and documenting the layout of the network.
The number and locations of wiring closets must be determined according to the EIA/TIA standards.
Obstructions and EMI/RFI interference must be routed around.
Cable can be mounted using the surface or flush method.
Surface is easier, flush looks better and protects the cable to a greater extent.
Cable must be labeled and tested.
Cable testers can determine correct wiring, segment lengths, and if the cable has attenuation or noise problems.
