structured cabling system, technical standards, therapy center, cable analyzerAbstract
This study aimed to evaluate the compliance of a Structured Cabling System (SCS) in a center specialized in neurodevelopmental disorders therapy located in the city of Campos dos Goytacazes, RJ, considering the current technical standards. The research was conducted through a bibliographic review in the scientific databases Scopus, Web of Science and Google Scholar, in addition to the analysis of the standards pertinent to the subject. The methodology also included an on-site technical inspection and acceptance tests of the building's horizontal cabling, using a cable analyzer. The results revealed the absence of a telecommunications room on the ground floor, lack of identification in all telecommunications outlets and several failures related to the transmission parameters and the electrical network of the cables. These findings allow the proposal of targeted corrective interventions, contributing to the improvement of the building's telecommunications infrastructure and ensuring compliance with the applicable technical standards.Downloads
