That the SCS installed system complies with the margin claimed by the manufacturer above the category 6 channel specifications on all transmission parameters across the entire frequency range of 1-250 MHz as shown on the manufacturers catalogs and literature.
WORKMANSHIP
A.
Components of the fiber optic backbone system shall be installed by the SCS Contractor in a neat, workmanlike manner consistent with the best technology practices.
B.
Fiber optic color codes shall be strictly observed and spliced and terminations shall be uniform throughout the project.
C.

SUPPORT AND ROUTING OF CABLES
A.
Horizontal cables used inside the buildings not installed within the conduit will be installed within ceiling spaces in 1” innerduct suitable for the environment they are installed. Cables shall be routed through these spaces on approved cable support systems. Fiber cables, suitable for the building environment, shall be extended from the entrance conduit entering the buildings, to the TR’s, utilizing existing cable trays or new/existing J-Hooks.
B.
Use of ceiling tiles, grid or hanger wires for support of fiber cables shall be prohibited.
C.
The SCS Contractor shall install a complete set of supporting J-hooks and other supporting hardware for this system as part of the SCS contract. All supporting hardware shall be submitted to the engineer for approval prior to installation.
3.08
FIRE AND SMOKE PARTITION PENETRATIONS
A.
Conduit sleeves shall be provided as a means of routing cables within the buildings as required. Openings in sleeves and conduits used for the SCS fiber cables and those which remain (empty) spare shall be sealed with a U.L. approved fireproof, removable safing material by the SCS Contractor.
B.
Sleeves which pass vertically from floor to floor, if required, shall be sealed by the SCS Contractor in a similar manner using an approved re-enterable system. Penetration rating shall equal structure rating.
C.
Additional penetrations required and not indicated on the drawings through rated/non-rated assemblies necessary for passage of SCS fiber cables shall be made by the SCS Contractor using an approved method and permanently sealed after installation of the fiber cables.
3.09 A. 3.10 A.
CROSS CONNECTS/PATCHING All fiber patching shall be performed by the CPA. FIBER OPTIC CABLE INSTALLATION Installation of Fiber Optic Cables by the SCS Contractor shall be in accordance with EIA/TIA 568B guidelines. Cable installation and terminations that do not comply shall be replaced by the SCS Contractor at no additional cost to the CPA. 1.
2.
The bend radius for optical fiber backbone shall not be less than that recommended by the manufacturer. If no recommendation is known, then the applied bend radius for nonconductive fiber optic cables shall not be less than 10 times the cable outside diameter under no-load conditions and no less than 15 times the cable outside diameter when the cable is under tensile load. For conductive fiber optic cables shall not be less than 10 times the cable outside diameter under no-load conditions and no less than 20 times the cable outside diameter when the cable is under tensile load. As work is being completed within the handholes to install the fiber cables the Contractor will detail the contents of each hole as indicated in the sample butterfly detail on the drawings. Conduit sizes with number of innerducts/pull strings,

The north arrow shall be shown to give reference to the next handhole. These handhole details for all existing and new holes shall be provided with the as-built documents. 3.11
STRUCTURED CABLE SYSTEM PROTECTION DURING CONSTRUCTION.
A.
General: SCS Contractor shall protect all SCS equipment and material from damage during construction.
B.
Racks and connecting hardware protection. Racks shall be covered with fabric or plastic after mounting to prevent dust, debris and other foreign materials having contact with SCS devices.
C.
Cables: SCS Contractor shall protect at all times all fiber optic cables from damage during installation. All cables shall maintain the physical integrity as manufactured for testing and delivery to the CPA. All damaged cables shall be replaced at no additional cost to the CPA. The Contractor shall maintain ownership of the System until final acceptance by the CPA.
3.12 A.
3.13 A.
. 3.14 A.
TRAINING The SCS Contractor shall provide a minimum of (1) 6 hour training sessions to familiarize the CPA with the locations of all TR’s, conduits, raceways and cable routing, hand-holes, numbering systems, and power sources supporting systems installed under this scope of work. AS-BUILT DOCUMENTATION As-built documentation shall be provided as part of the contract by the SCS Contractor. As-built drawings shall be a complete set of AutoCAD floor plans with all conduits/maintenance hole/handhole butterfly details and fiber cables shown and numbered as indicated on the drawings and installed. The original project floor plan disks shall be obtained from the CPA/ Engineer. All addendum information or project revisions resulting in drawing changes that occur during the construction period shall be documented and included in the as-built material. All required as-built documentation is mandatory and shall be required prior to project closeout. A set of prints with all changes shall be submitted to the CPA/Engineer for review. Upon completion of the review, the Contractor shall provide updated disks and (3) three hard copy set of drawings, which include final As-built conditions and the CPA/Engineer's review comments, if any. ACCEPTANCE General: The project shall be considered complete and ready to be turned over to the CPA after the completion of the following items by the SCS Contractor: 1. 2. 3. 4.
Submission and Approval of all copper and fiber optic certified test reports. Submission of all written warranties to the Owner/ Engineer Final walk-thru by the /Engineer, Manufacturer and the Contractor. Delivery of final as-built documentation to the Engineer.
