Cabling ( comp.dcom.cabling )
From [email protected] Mon Apr 25 14:15:34 1994 Path: uunet!bounce-back From: [email protected] (Alain Fontaine) Newsgroups: news.announce.newgroups,news.groups,comp.dcom.lans.ethernet,comp.dcom.lans.misc,comp.dcom.lans.fddi,comp.dcom.lans.token-ring,comp.dcom.telecom.tech Subject: RFD: comp.dcom.cabling-sys Followup-To: news.groups Date: 22 Apr 1994 16:22:31 -0400 Organization: Universite Catholique de Louvain Lines: 51 Sender: [email protected] Approved: [email protected] Message-ID: <[email protected]> NNTP-Posting-Host: rodan.uu.net Xref: uunet news.announce.newgroups:4997 news.groups:101656 comp.dcom.lans.ethernet:9828 comp.dcom.lans.misc:3280 comp.dcom.lans.fddi:2615 comp.dcom.lans.token-ring:634 comp.dcom.telecom.tech:4011 Proposal for a new newsgroup Proposed by: Alain Fontaine <[email protected]> -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Group name: comp.dcom.cabling-sys Status: unmoderated Distribution: world-wide Summary: a newsgroup for the discussion of cabling systems for communication JUSTIFICATION: There are several groups in existence where different (local or non-local) network technologies are discussed. While it has been true in the past that each network technology did use a specific type of cabling, the current trend is to wire buildings with some universal cabling system, and then to use newer variations of the established networking technologies (like 10baseT for Ethernet) on that universal cabling. Cabling systems have thus reached a point where they are independent of the network technologies. They have their own standards, including a forthcoming ISO/IEC standard. They should have the same kind of status in the news, as it should be possible to find a place to discuss the issues pertaining to that new discipline, indepedently of any network architecture. CHARTER: The proposed group will provide a forum for the discussion of issues related to the selection, installation and test of cabling systems. Example topics: - cable specifications - connector specifications - structure of cabling sytems - implementation details - test apparatus and procedures for cabling ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Please post information for discussion to the news groups (news.groups). ********************************************************************** NOTE This RFD is being issued in concordance with the guidelines set in the "How to create a new usenet newsgroup" FAQ regularly posted to news.announce.newgroups. Please refer to this article if you have any questions about the newsgroup creation.

For voting questions only contact [email protected] For questions about the proposed group contact Alain Fontaine <[email protected]>. CHARTER This group provides a forum for the discussion of issues related to the selection, installation, test and usage of cabling. Example topics: - cable specifications - connector specifications - structure of cabling sytems - implementation details - test apparatus and procedures for cabling - usage of existing cabling for new applications - ISO 11801 Justification: There are several groups in existence where different (local or non-local) network technologies are discussed.

They should have the same kind of status in the news, as it should be possible to find a place to discuss the issues pertaining to that new discipline, independently of any network architecture. Additionally, the existing cabling must still be maintained and used in the best possible way. The same group would also be a place where more general questions about all cabling issues could be debated.
