GENERAL

1. The purpose of this document is to supplement Telecommunications Industry Association/Electronic Industry Alliance (TIA/EIA) commercial standards for premise wiring (Local Area Network cabling) on Keesler AFB.

2. New construction or renovations programming premise wiring work requires coordination with the 81 CS/SCXP Plans and Programs Office, contact # 377- 7500 prior to implementation.

3. All premise wiring installed on Keesler AFB will conform to TIA/EIA wiring standards listed at the end of this document and the supplemental guidance contained in the attachments within this document.

4. Any deviations from the attached standards and this supplement should be coordinated and approved by the 81 CS/SCXP.

5. Contractual responsibilities:

5.1 Contractors selected to complete premise wiring work must have at least one experienced\technically certified Building Industry Consulting Service International (BICSI) technician on site.

5.2 Provide as-built drawings for the premise wiring work accomplished identifying installation/relocation work.

5.3 Provide test results for new\relocated premise wiring work accomplished.

5.4 Contractors shall be responsible for restoring work areas to original condition.

5.5 81 CS quality assurance office 81 CS/SCQ will be the approving authority for premise wiring work accomplished in new construction or renovations.
