History
3 Cable categories
The rst revision of the standard, TIA/EIA-568-A.11991 was released in 1991. The standard was updated to
revision B in 1995. The demands placed upon commercial wiring systems increased dramatically over this period due to the adoption of personal computers and data
communication networks and advances in those technologies. The development of high-performance twisted pair
cabling and the popularization of ber optic cables also
drove signicant change in the standards. These changes
were rst released in a revision C in 2009 which has subsequently received minor maintenance updates.[4]

to intermediate cross-connects (ICC) and horizontal
cross-connects (HCC). Telecommunications design traditions utilized a similar topology, and many people refer to cross-connects by their older, nonstandard names:
"distribution frames" (with the various hierarchies called
MDFs, IDFs and wiring closets). Backbone cabling is
also used to interconnect entrance facilities (such as telco
demarcation points) to the main cross-connect. Maximum allowable backbone bre distances vary between
300m and 3000m, depending upon the cable type and
use.
Horizontal cross-connects provide a point for the consolidation of all horizontal cabling, which extends in a star
topology to individual work areas such as cubicles and ofces. Under TIA/EIA-568-B, maximum allowable horizontal cable distance is 90m of installed cabling, whether
bre or twisted-pair, with 100m of maximum total length
including patch cords. No patch cord should be longer
than 5m. Optional consolidation points are allowable in
horizontal cables, often appropriate for open-plan oce
layouts where consolidation points or media converters
may connect cables to several desks or via partitions.
out of inertia.
The colors of the wire pairs in the cable, in order, are:
blue (for pair 1), orange, green, and brown (for pair 4).
Each pair consists of one conductor of solid color and a
second conductor which is white with a stripe of the other
color.
The dierence between the two pinouts is that the orange
and green wire pairs are exchanged.
