How to choose the components for internal plant installations

The choice of components for the installation of optical fiber in the internal plant is influenced by several factors, including the choice of communications equipment, the physical routing of the cable network and the codes and regulations of the construction. If a corporate LAN type network is designed, it is likely that a fiber optic backbone network will be included to connect the rooms where the computers are to the connecting rooms.

The connection rooms house the switches that convert the backbone network ( backbone ) from fiber to copper UTP cables for cable-connected desktops, and to copper or fiber for wireless network access points. At some desks, especially in engineering or design departments, fiber may be required to the desk because it offers greater bandwidth. Insecurity systems (alarms, access control systems, CCTV cameras), additional cables or fibers and construction management systems may be required).

To design fiber optic cable networks it is necessary to coordinate with all the people involved in one way or another in the network, including IT staff, company management, architects and engineers, etc., to ensure that all wiring requirements are analyzed simultaneously so that resources can be shared.

As in the OSP design, let's first analyze the fiber choice. Most networks in the internal plant use multimode fiber; however, many users now install hybrid cables with single-mode fibers for future extensions. The OM1 62.5 / 125-micron fiber that was used for almost two decades has been replaced by the new OM3 50/125 laser-optimized fiber, as it offers significant advantages over bandwidth and distance.

Almost all the equipment works as well with the OM3 50/125 fiber as it worked with the OM1 62.5 / 125 fiber, but it is always a good idea to check with the equipment manufacturers to make sure. In the network design documentation, remember to include the instruction to mark all cables and connection panels with water color labels, to indicate that it is the OM3 fiber.
