IEC 61156-6-1 Ed. 3.0 en – Multicore and symmetrical pair/quad cables for digital communications – Part 6-1: Symmetrical pair/quad cables with transmission characteristics up to 1 000 MHz – Work area wiring – Blank detail specification

IEC 61156-6-1:2009(E) describes symmetrical pair/quad cables intended primarily for horizontal floor cabling as defined in ISO/IEC 11801 and ISO/IEC 24702. It includes additional recommended environmental characteristics and severities which are derived from the environmental classifications that are specified for cabling for various environments. This edition constitutes a technical revision and includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:
– new requirements for new cables Cat6A and Cat7A;
– revised requirements and tests for the cables.

This publication is to be read in conjunction with IEC 61156-1:2007 and IEC 61156-6:2007.
