Which is it; Cat 3 or Cat 6.

2. Building 503A – Riser Diagram T-602:

a. 1st Floor Diagram shows incoming OSP Copper by Others terminating on 110 Block. What is the Pair count of that Incoming OSP Copper so we can determine what size 110 Block we will need to terminate after the PET.

b. From the 1st Floor and up through the 7th Floor, it appears that there will be (6) 25 Pair OSP ??? Copper Backbone or Riser ??? Copper Backbone cables with (1) each terminating on a 25 Pair 110 Block on each floor.

Each floor will have (2) 25 Pair 110 Blocks and (1) 24 Pair Patch Panel

(110) Voice. Or, is the design such that each 25 Pair Cable home runs to the 1st Floor?
