Equipment rooms ::

17/55
Equipment rooms are considered to be distinct from telecommunications rooms because of the nature or complexity of the equipment they contain. An equipment room provides a controlled environment to house telecommunications equipment, connecting hardware, splice closures, grounding and bonding facilities, and protection apparatus where applicable.

Recommendations

  • From a cabling perspective, an equipment room may contain either the main cross-connect or the intermediate cross-connect used in the backbone cabling hierarchy.
