PART 3 EXECUTION

3.1 EXAMINATION

Examine the route and mounting locations of the raceways, boxes, distribution systems, supporting structure and accessories, to determine if conditions exist that will inhibit or prevent proper PDS installation.

Notify the Contracting Officer in writing of conditions detrimental to proper completion of the work (i.e. that would render the distribution system non-compliant with governing security regulations). Do not proceed with work until unsatisfactory conditions are corrected.

SECTION 27 05 29.00 10 Page 5

3.2 PDS CARRIER ROUTING

3.2.1 General

Route the PDS carrier in a tree type fashion.

a. Start the PDS horizontal backbone at the TR (SIPRNET TR or at IPS container location) with a single raceway or conduit sized accordingly (70 percent cable fill for secure raceway with removable top cover, 60 percent cable fill for EMT conduit and solid construction secure raceway) to contain CAT6 UTP, CAT6 STP, or fiber optic cable runs.

b. Extend the PDS carrier from the PDS horizontal backbone throughout the facility to areas where SIPRNET access is required. Branch off the PDS horizontal backbone with a horizontal run to an area where the UDB is located.

c. Use vertical carrier runs from the horizontal run to the UDB. TIA-569 change in direction standard does not apply.

d. Use standard under-floor cable distribution methods to distribute SIPRNET cabling within Secure Room and SCIF spaces with raised flooring.

e. Maintain RED/BLACK cable separation in accordance with

NSTISSAM TEMPEST/2-95.

f. Remove all burrs from carrier segments prior to installation.

3.2.2 Distribution Topology

Use a distributed topology when designing the PDS carrier. Locating a small secondary network switch in an equipment enclosure mounted in an Uncontrolled Access Area (UAA) space or in a relay or equipment rack within a Controlled Access Area (CAA) space (i.e. SCIF, NOC/BOC, etc.) that has a high concentration of users is acceptable. Interconnect network switches using single-mode fiber optic cable. Increase the capacity of the network switch to provide service to adjacent spaces as required.

3.2.3 Mounting Location Considerations

a. Route the PDS carrier so that it does not cross windows or doorway openings; does not cross ceiling or wall mounted lighting fixtures;

does not obscure EXIT signs or fire alarms; and maintains a minimum 3-foot separation from fire sprinkler heads.

b. Bend (saddle or offset) conduit to follow wall contours and avoid wall obstacles (columns, pipes, etc.).

c. Use offset raceway to route secure raceway systems around columns and other wall partition obstacles.

d. Route PDS carrier so that it is surface mounted on interior walls wherever possible. Obtain exceptions from NEC/DOIM prior to installation to mount PDS carrier on exterior wall partitions.

e. Route PDS carrier to maximized cable fills in horizontal runs and reduce the number of horizontal runs within the same space.

f. Use all-thread rod to mount the PDS carrier to true ceiling structure

SECTION 27 05 29.00 10 Page 6 when routing across open areas (e.g. large hallways, open office areas, large rooms) that exceed 8 feet. Mounting the PDS carrier directly from suspended ceiling framework is not acceptable.

3.2.4 Adjacent Infrastructure Considerations

Keep conduit a minimum of 6 inches from parallel runs of flues and steam or hot water pipes. A minimum separation of 6-inches is required between the PDS carrier and water pipes, electrical wires, electrical pipes, plumbing, air conditioning, etc.

3.3 INSTALLATION

Strictly comply with manufacturer's installation instructions and recommendations and approved shop drawings. Coordinate installation with adjacent work to ensure proper clearances and compliance with project site manager and NEC/DOIM.

3.3.1 Mounting PDS Carrier

Surface mount PDS Conduit on the wall using conduit clamps, brackets, or mounts with 0.5 to 1-inch offset spacer from the wall surface. Mount PDS carrier to a wall partition every 5 feet and/or within 18 inches of a section or component connection. Do not mount the PDS Carrier directly to the wall surface.

a. Where wall mounting is unavailable, use appropriately sized all thread rods to mount PDS carrier to ceiling structure.

b. Do not mount PDS carrier to acoustical tile ceiling (ATC) framework.

c. Fasten PDS carrier and component items to building wall partitions using appropriate anchor and fastener for wall partition type.

d. Mount PDS carrier so that is is level and plumb along its route. The top edge of the carrier is horizontally level. Whenever possible maintain a minimum of 2-inches below the suspended ceiling line or the true ceiling line, whichever is lower.

e. Use appropriate hanger type to mount PDS Conduit carrier from ceiling structure.

f. Struts are not allowed to be used to mount secure raceway or conduit to wall partitions.

g. No more than 1/4 inch play is allowed on TOP CAP (top cover) and span cut per segment span.

h. Install the PDS carrier to permit visual inspections of its entire run.

i. Do not block doorways or access to emergency exits and do not inhibit the operation of windows.

j. Do not paint or cover the PDS carrier with wallpaper or other covering unless the paint is applied by the carrier manufacturer.

k. Bond PDS carrier to TGB or TMGB at point of origin.

SECTION 27 05 29.00 10 Page 7

3.3.2 Enclosures

Use of enclosures with pre-punched knockouts or external hinges is not acceptable. Fasten UDB, pull boxes, and enclosures to the wall partition using fasteners appropriate for the wall partition type.

3.3.2.1 User Drop Box (UDB)

a. Indicate UDB locations in the PDS Plan and on as-built drawings.

b. Size the UDB to terminate up to 6 cables.

c. Coordinate drop box location with furniture, fixtures and equipment that will be used in the vicinity (provided by others). Surface mount drop boxes on the wall partition approximately 4 to 5 feet above final floor line depending on room furniture height and layout.

3.3.2.2 Other Enclosures

Indicate enclosure type (user drop box, equipment, or pull-box) on shop and as-built drawings.

3.3.3 Mechanical Security

Comply with site specific epoxy standards obtained from the installation NEC/DOIM. Apply a continuous bead of epoxy at all component, coupling, and fitting connection joints of an EMT conduit PDS carrier system. Seal pull box covers to the pull boxes around the mating surfaces after installation if they cannot be secured with GSA approved changeable combination padlock.

3.3.4 Carrier Support

Support carrier with mounting brackets at intervals.

3.4 FIELD QUALITY ASSURANCE

3.4.1 Physical Inspection

Physically inspect all interfaces to ensure that they are tight and cannot turn. Also, physically inspect lock covers to ensure that the lock cap is properly sealed inside the locking mechanism.

3.4.2 Magnetic Test

Perform magnet test on all components (e.g. carrier conduit, carrier raceway, pull boxes, enclosures, conduit bodies, cover plates, etc) and fittings used to construct the carrier. Place a magnet on the carrier component or fitting to verify that construction is from ferrous material.

Some alloys will fail the magnet test (e.g. 309 stainless steel) but meet the ferrous material requirements. Provide alloy material property list for components that fail magnet test to the Contracting Officer for approval. Use of components and fittings that fail the magnet test and are not made from ferrous material is not acceptable.

3.5 CLEANING AND PROTECTION

Clean exposed surfaces using non-abrasive materials and methods recommended by manufacturer. Protect raceways and boxes until acceptance.
