Home structured cabling requires a STar type structure: the user socket connection cables meet in a central point called “star centre” or communication area
This is the area where the
connections with the access networks for distribution of various services (Telephone system, TV/SaT…),
as well as all active information management and distribution devices, are located in general, the communication area is created by grouping together all the devices in an appropriate distribution board to be installed near the general distribution board of the home
in new or refurbished homes, where the MY HOME FLaTWaLL solution has been selected as the general electric distribution board (for example, to also centralise the MY HOME devices), the communication area must be created inside the distribution board itself

THE WIRING
in home structured cabling systems two types of cables are used: coaxial cables for the distribution
of the television signal; 4 pair twisted cable for the
transmission of telephone and data signals
The CEi 306-2 (*) guide calls for a so-called “basic” wiring characterised by 1 cable with 4 symmetrical pairs and 1 Coaxial cable destined to the corresponding rJ45 type connectors for data transmission, and to coaxial connectors for the television The same guide recommends a so called “advanced” wiring, characterised by 2 cables with 4 symmetrical pairs for data/telephone services, and 2 coaxial cables for TV signals
COAXIAL CABLE
The coaxial cable consists of a central rigid or flexible conductor, insulated, using dielectric material, from an external cylindrical conductor called “shield”
CABLE WITH 4 SYMMETRIC PAIRS
Used for data and telephone transmission, this cable consists of 4 pairs of twisted cables it is available with (STP, S-FTP) or without (UTP) external shield For both, the characteristic impedance is 100 Ohms
Shielded cable (STP) Unshielded cable (UTP)
The performance in terms of maximum frequency of the transmitted signal, is expressed in categories as below:
Category 5: data transmission up to 100 Mbit/s
Category 5e: data transmission up to 1000 Mbit/s (100 MHz)
Category 6: data transmission up to 1000 Mbit/s (250 MHz)
Category 6a: data transmission up to 10 Gbit/s (500 MHz)
due to the current transmission requirement, the CEi guide recommends 5e category cables However, in order to prepare the network for future applications, category 6 or 6a cables are recommended The typical use requires capping with rJ45 connectors
Cavo COAXIAL
nOTe (*): CeI 306-2. Guide for
telecommunication and multimedia distribution wiring inside residential buildings.
The Coaxial cable for Television applications has a characteristic impedance of 75 Ohms and a diameter between 4 and 7 mm

Structured cabling system for the home sector MY HOME 445 THE USER SOCKET
in the system configuration described so far, each branch of the “Star centre” reaches, and ends in, a user socket normally consisting of one or more connectors
There are two types of connectors for the home data network:
TV signal coaxial connector rJ45 standard connector with 8
contacts for telephone system and data signals
For the connection of telephone devices with rJ11 connectors to rJ45 type connectors, the use of the rJ45/rJ11 adapter cable, L4664, is recommended

DESIGN CRITERIA
during the design of the home data network system, it is important that the following aspects are defined in orderly sequence:
Functions required (data, Telephone system, TV);
Selection of the installation solutions based on the features of the building irrespective of the type of system and the required functions, it is necessary that the PLaniMETrY, as well as a GEnEraL FUrniTUrE PLan, are made available to the installer it must also be considered that on a design and installation point of view the creation of a home data network system is not very different from that of a traditional electric power system STANDARDS
The design and installation of the home data network system must be performed following the indications and requirements contained in the following documents:
CEI 306-2: Guide for
telecommunication and multimedia distribution wiring inside residential buildings
CEI 64-100/1: residential building Guide for the presetting of the infrastructures for electric, electronic, and communication systems Part 1: Building risers
CEI 64-100/2: residential building Guide for the presetting of the infrastructures for electric, electronic, and communication systems Page 2: dwellings (apartments) CEI EN 50173-1: information technology - Structured cabling systems
Part 1: General requirements CEI EN 50173-4: information technology - Structured cabling systems Page 4: Homes
DEFINITION OF THE FUNCTIONS REQUIRED
The design of the data network system requires a good knowledge of the multimedia functions to be installed around the home as a way of example, attached is the table of CEi 306-2 guide For each application this table shows the features of the corresponding wiring setup to be implemented for the multimedia network
* In order to take advantage of the fl exibility of the home wiring system, it is recommended that also for the telephone system service a 4 symmetrical pair cable is used, connected to a RJ45 socket, instead of the traditional twisted pair connected to the RJ11/12 socket.
In this case, the same rJ45 socket used to connect the pc to the local ethernet network can be reused, for example, to connect a standard analogue telephone to the telephone line, without any intervention required on the horizontal wiring. The only action needed will be the patching of the termination of the corresponding cable in the Star centre, moving the connector from the ethernet switch to the telephone distribution frame. To connect a telephone unit with rJ11 socket to the rJ45 socket, use the corresponding cable rJ11/ rJ45 L4664.

Creation of the communication area
ZONE FOR HOME WIRING DEVICES
This area is occupied by the patch modules connecting the user sockets to the Star centre, as well as all devices for the appropriate distribution of the various signals to the sockets themselves
On an installation point of view, it is recommended that the communication area is split in two specific zones:
zone for the installation of Gateway access devices zone for home wiring devices ZONE FOR GATEWAY ACCESS DEVICES
This area is occupied by all active and non active equipment, with corresponding wiring for the connection of the electric services coming from the outside of the home, such as:
Telephone line;
TV/SaT system from the central unit downstream the aerials an example of active device for this area is the adSL modem with integrated switch, and if applicable the Gateway device for the signals coming from the optic fiber network On the other hand, a non active device can be the filter for the separation of the telephone signal from the adSL data signal
For the operation of active devices, it will be necessary to allow for 230 V power supply sockets, with the corresponding disconnection and protection devices in case of indirect contact and overload
it must be considered that both devices and wiring of the telephone and data networks must be kept separate from the 230 V electric power supply devices and wiring
it will therefore be necessary to also allow for partitions or similar solutions for the separation of the systems
if the FLaTWaLL switchboard is used, a specific compartment is available for the installation of multimedia devices
Zone for home wiring devices
Positioning of the user sockets
it is recommended that 2 rJ45sockets (data and telephone) and 1 TV jack are installed in each room, every 3 75 m of the perimeter of the room (ref CEi En 50173-4) The number of sockets in each room must, in any case, be such that from each zone it will be possible to reach the user point using a PC or telephone connection cord not longer than 5 metres without causing any transit problems inside the room Obviously, this requirement must be assessed also taking into account the current or future position of the furniture, so that
the use of of the user sockets is not prevented by the positioning of the furniture For the power supply of the connected devices, on the side of each user socket one or more 230 V power supply sockets must
also be installed, inside dedicated device holding boxes if no precise design is available, the miminum requirements recommended for each standard room of the house could be as follows:
example of a possible home wiring system. Star centre distribution board

User socket wiring
Cat. 6 UTP Connectors in order to ensure access to all types
of services (data, telephone system, and TV), the user socket must be fitted with rJ45 connectors (female type), and coaxial connectors for aerial systems, with electric features compatible with the ones of the corresponding connection cables RJ45 CONNECTORS
For the connection of modular rJ45 connectors to the 4 symmetric pair data cable, two solutions can be implemented, regulated by Tia/Eia 568a or Tia/Eia 568B standards respectively
These two standards are completely similar in terms of performance and supported applications The only difference is that pair 2 and pair 3 are switched
The main trend is to install systems using the Tia/Eia 568B standard connection requirements
By using this type of wiring, both the signals for the distribution of the data
TV COAXIAL SOCKET
For the distribution of TV services in the residential network wiring system it is necessary to install the Coaxial cable, which must be connected, in the user sockets, to the corresponding F or iEC type TV jack (male type) The socket must be compatible with the cable features and must assure the transmission, without relevant attenuation, of the television signal with frequencies up to 2 150 GHz BTicino has a wide range of die-cast aluminium TV jacks for the distribution of TV SaT and FM radio signals
service and those for the telephone system will be available on all the pins of the connector, as shown in the following table
