Green Vs. Smart buildings
GREEN Buildings • Sustainable Sites (SS) • Water Efficiency (WE) • Energy and Atmosphere (EA) • Materials and Resources (MR) • Indoor Environmental Quality (IEQ) • Innovation in Design (ID) • Regional Priority (RP) SMART buildings • Data, VoIP and Video Distribution Networks • A/V Systems • Video Surveillance Systems • HVAC Control • Power Management • Lighting Controls • Wired & Wireless networks • Facilities Management SystemsIntegrated Cabling Infrastructure
• Building uses Structured Cable ANSI/TIA/EIA 568 Standards for Twisted Pair and Fiber Optic Cabling • Building has maximized the use of Structured Cable Plant for Security Systems and Building Automation Systems (EIA/TIA 862) • Deployed IEEE 802.11 wireless throughout usable building space • Building uses Power over Ethernet (PoE) to end points such as security cameras, card readers, wireless access points, BAS controllers, and communication devices such as telephonesIntegrated Cabling Infrastructure
• Building uses consolidated cable pathways i.e. cable from multiple systems share cable pathways • Building has consolidated the number of cabling contractors to install cable for multiple systems • Equipment Rooms Adhere to ANSI/TIA/EIA 569 StandardsIntegrated Cabling Infrastructure

Value of Integration
–
Lower Installation costs
‐For building architects,
engineers, and construction contractors, it means
combining portions of the design and construction,
with resulting savings in project management and
commissioning time.
–
Vertical Integration
–Capability to integrate data from
facilities into enterprise business systems
–
Horizontal Integration
–Capability to have system
work together to gain additional functionality.
–
More actionable information
‐ Analytics

Offices are changing
•
Real Estate Challenge
– Office space is the second largest expense
– 52% = average office space utilization globally •
Trends in office space design
– fewer and smaller individual workspaces
– More spaces dedicated for interactive users / Collaboration
•

PoE – Standards Update
2003
IEEE 802.3af
12.95W PoE
Pairs used: 2
Output Current: 350mA
2009
IEEE 802.3at
25.5W PoE+
Pairs used: 2
Output Current: 600mA
2013
4-pair PoE
IEEE 802.3bt
Task Force established49W PoE
Pairs used: 4
Output Current: 600mA• The IEEE 802.3bt four‐pair PoE standard is expected to assume a maximum temperature rise of 10 degrees Celsius when all four pairs are energized. • For cabling with an operational temperature range of ‐20 degrees Celsius to 60 degrees Celsius, the ambient temperature should not exceed 50 degrees Celsius. • Because increased thermal loading can also increase insertion loss, the maximum cable length should be de‐rated for higher temperatures, per ANSI/TIA‐568‐C.2 Balanced Twisted‐pair Telecommunications Cabling and Component Standard Temperature rise (Deg C) Current Capacity (mA) 5 420 7.5 550 10 600 12.5 680 15 720 Estimated Temperature rise based on Current carrying capacity for Cat5e 100‐cable bundle
