PURPOSE

This document supplements UFC-3-580-1 and the Air Force Civil Engineer Support Agency (AFCESA) Engineering Technical Letter (ETL) 02-12, which identifies the minimum telecommunication requirements, and to provide design criteria for telecommunications cabling and distribution system requirements unique to Hill Air Force Base. The AFCESA ETL 02-12 states pre-wiring shall be included in all military facility construction projects accomplished with 3300 series funding. IAW AFI 33-101, COMMUNICATIONS AND INFORMATION MANAGEMENT GUIDANCE AND RESPONSIBILITIES, the Communications-Computer Systems Officer (CSO) has mandated that all pre-wiring must comply with ETL 02-12, BISCI Telecommunications Distribution Methods Manual and this document. Compliance with this document improves maintenance by establishing a standard for communication systems.

Department of Defense (DOD) publications direct the use of commercial standards whenever they meet DOD needs.

The guidance in this document will be followed by all base and tenant agencies and their contractors.

To minimize the long-term cost of the infrastructure, ensure interoperability and interface capability, local standards are established and may only be changed when approved in writing by the CSO. These standards are intended to promote common skills among maintenance personnel throughout the base and to minimize the necessity for excessive spare parts and variations in telecommunications equipment.

Revisions to this document will be prepared and distributed by 75 ABW/SC when higher headquarters guidance, USAF communications standards, or other contributing agency standards warrant changes. Additionally, 75 ABW/SC recognizes the inherent need to maintain close interaction with Base Civil Engineering (BCE) and the Army Corp of Engineers on all project issues and we invite comments or recommendations for changes to this document.

The drawings shall show cross-connect and termination points for each cable pair, locations and identification number for each modular outlet and the location and value of each line amplifier and multi-port device throughout the cable system. Prior to facility turn-over or final acceptance, the installing activity will give three hard copies of the finalized “AS BUILT” drawings to 75 ABW/SCXPP or designated representative, along with one electronic copy prepared in the most current version of AUTOCAD. For conduit and direct bury installations, the contractor will also provide GPS plotted locations of any new manholes, handholds, posts, stubs, comm. closets, connecting

manholes and any other information that is beneficial to aid in updating and maintaining the communication GEO-Base component. A GPS measurement must be taken every 100 feet or at every directional change.

14.4. In-progress inspections by 75 ABW/SC personnel are required during the construction phase. For example, trenches will not be covered prior to being inspected. This will ease verification of conduit size, quantity, cable type, earth cover compliance and the accuracy of "red line" cable records or contract drawings. The installation activity/contractor is solely responsible for requesting an inspection.

14.5. Installed cable (fiber and copper) shall be tested by the installer. Fiber and copper cable sample rate will be at the discretion of the 75 ABW/SC cable maintenance personnel. Baseline test records shall be provided for signed acceptance to the HAFB CSO in printed and digital format. All category 5E cable shall be tested and certified to 155 Mbps (100 MHz).
