Introduction
Structured premise cabling systems have become state of the art in modern office buildings.
These standard based universal systems have emerged from early proprietary systems.
Even in the “home networking” sector a network is well on the way to become the norm. The
corresponding peripheral technology is affordable for a large section of society and DSL
technology combined with the Internet provide the motivation for investment.
Over the years there have been constant changes to the cabling, the connectors and even
the applications. For this reason, standards such as EN 50173 for structured premises
cabling systems have, to a large extent, ensured planning safety. The first issue in 1995
represented a huge milestone in consolidating the diverse network systems that prevailed at
the time and in 2002 the second issue came into force, with several sections having been
updated to reflect technology changes and bandwidth requirements.
Despite these standards, the requirements of the end user are frequently different, making it
increasingly difficult to service these extremely divergent characteristics with standard
cabling systems.
Therefore, open communication systems always were, and still are, the most suitable
connectivity option as they allow the client to take into account technological changes and
enable them to adapt to each event.
This concept led to the development of the universal AMP CO Plus System, which has now
been in widespread use for over 10 years. During this time many improvements and
changes have been made to incorporate technical changes into the system.
The 10 millionth AMP CO Plus insert was presented at Cebit 2004.
10 Gigabit Ethernet over Twisted Pair Cabling is currently occupying the standardisation
committees, with the Link classes E and F being redefined and the requirements of the
cabling systems increasing. AMP CO already meets these link performance requirements,
once again demonstrating its impressive capability and flexibility.

1. Area of Application
Structured premises cabling systems are described in the ISO 11801 and EN 50173
Standard. Two types of topology are mentioned.
1. Centralized Network Architecture
2. Distributed Network Architecture
Centralised cabling is suitable for short link lengths or for entirely fibre optic cabling.
Individual users are connected directly or via passive secondary distribution. There is a
central communications room where all the cables converge, which also houses all the
active equipment.
However, in approximately 75 % of the installations a mixed structure is used for a variety of
reasons. Twisted pair copper cable is generally used for horizontal cabling from the floor
distributors, with fibre optic cable deployed to create a collapsed backbone to these
distributors radiating from a centralised building distributor.
There are advantages and disadvantages to both types of cabling and it is up to each
individual user to weigh up the pros and cons.

AMP CO Plus is a cabling system which can be implemented with both topologies and is
limited by a length restriction of 90 m for copper cabling.
2. Cabling Standard and 10 Gigabit Ethernet
Category 6 in 2002 was the last milestone before the forthcoming Class EA and 10 Gigabit
over Copper (IEEE 802.3an) became the next huge step in the Ethernet history. This is
again a challenge for a lot of systems and technologies. For the first time the global market
recognises the advantage of shielded systems even in IEEE.
The existing Class F is one recognised definition which fully supports 10 Gigabit over the
100m without any limitation. As well most of the shielded Category 6 systems will support 10
Gigabit up to 100m, while all category 6 UTP Systems have limitation up to 37m.
Because of the increased bandwidth and sensitive coding mechanisms used in
communication systems, EMC compliance is a critical design objective for any IT system.
For 10 Gigabit Ethernet over copper, EMC compliance is for the first time a challenge and
the impact on cabling systems is enormous.

But why is this?
Two key issues influence the 10 Gigabit Ethernet transmission:
• Alien Crosstalk
• Background noise
Both parameters affect EMC
compliance.
As the transmission frequency
increases, cables and
components in a communication
channel will disturb each other.
It is like NEXT within cable. The
worst case is shown in Picture
3a. One cable is surrounded by
6 other ones. This configuration is common practice as cables are installed in this way.
UTP cabling systems have just one method of protection from electrical disturbance - the
twist rate of the pairs. The twist rate is unable to mitigate effectively the interference from
adjacent pairs at high frequencies. This is the cause of the major problem for these UTP
systems at the required frequencies
for the new application.
STP systems have an electrical
shield, which surrounds each pair
and the cable (under the jacket).
The shields are able to suppress
the electrical interference
effectively. This explains the results
in Table 1
The second main issue is
background noise. Background
noise refers to any electrical
interference present in our
environment.
As the operating frequency of 10 Gigabit Ethernet extends to about 500 MHz, any other
application operating within this frequency range is able to disturb the transmission channel.
In practice these sources will include:
• TV stations
• Radio stations
• Mobile phone stations
Table 1a: 10G Support of cabling systems IEEE 802.3an
Pic 3a: EMC comparison STP and UTP

The cabling systems are able to
mitigate some of this
electromagnetic noise. The
question now is, how much?
The indicator is coupling
attenuation. This parameter
describes the ability of a cabling
system to suppress
electromagnetic noise. Coupling
attenuation is applicable to both
shielded and unshielded cabling
systems.

Table 1b: Calculation of Background Noise Mitigation
10 Gigabit Ethernet was published in June 2006. An update of ISO IEC 11801 is being
developed by the standardisation committees and is planned to be ratified in 2007. Because
of the required bandwidth requirements, two new link classes are expected to be added to
the existing ones as follows:
Class EA 500 MHz
Class FA 1000 MHz
AMP Netconnect has already the AMP CO Plus
System tested for the new link classes by
independent test laboratories.
AMP CO Plus already meets the requirements for
both new link classes.
Even the new Class FA with a bandwidth of 1000 MHz has been
successfully tested by GHMT, 3rd
party lab. This once more
demonstrates the future potential of the system.

3. Horizontal Cabling
Typical horizontal cabling describes the infrastructure from the floor distributor to the wall
outlet. Conventional cabling systems are firmly connected to a jack or a wall outlet. All
cables are normally terminated in the patch panel. The RJ 45 connector interface is used
and the cable and connector impedance is 100 Ω nominal.
However, this has not always been the case, with other connector interfaces on the market
including 93 and 150 Ω. Furthermore not all services use all pairs.
In addition, the link class must be established regardless of further technical changes, which
may arise in the future. Standard systems are unable to respond to these changes.
Only open communication systems are in a position to respond to these changes. This is the
main characteristic of the AMP CO Plus System.
4. What is AMP CO Plus?
The most striking difference between the AMP CO Plus System and standard systems is
that the communication interface is variable.
The cable is terminated at the edge connector (see page 10), which constitutes an open
communication interface on both ends. The application is then determined by the adapter
insert which provides many benefits for the user and networking administrator.
• This design enables the cable to be used in different ways.
• This type of connection conforms to all relevant standards as all 8 conductors are
terminated.
• The edge connector is used in the patch panel and wall outlet
Pic. 4: Principle of AMP CO Plus

The application determines the adapter, which has to be used.
The ISO 11801/EN 50173 Standard specifically refers to the possibility of changing the
service by changing the inserts. A range of inserts is available which provide a number of
different application options.
In standard systems the cable is fixed and connected to the jack. This means that it is not
possible to make changes, with the component “quality” e.g. category and link class also
being fixed.

Pic. 6b: conventional jack

5. Technology and Performance
This flexible design offers many advantages compared
with standard systems.
At the heart of the system lies the edge connector Mark
ll, to which the cable is terminated. In addition to full
shielding, the edge connector also has PiMF
Management, ensuring all foil pairs are individually
separated and shielded from each other.
The performance of the Mark II far exceeds all category
requirements and offers huge potential for future
developments.
Lab tests show a performance up to 2GHz. Given a
future definition of 1000 MHz for link class F and the fact
that even developments such as 10 Gigabit Ethernet
over copper do not require a higher link class, there is
clearly sufficient reserve available.

6. Link Performance
The design of the AMP CO Plus System, as detailed above, enables all link classes to be
installed without the need to specify connectors.
In general practice today, a 600 MHz PiMF cable is most frequently used, however the use
of a 1200 MHz cable is recommended. The cable is connected at each end to the
edge connector providing a link up to class F. As well the forthcoming Class FA with 1000
MHz is recognised.
The most important point is the cable. As higher the bandwidth is, as longer the system can
be used. The best available cable is a PimF 1200 MHz AWG 22. This cable provides best
technical performance on the market as well as excellent CATV conditions.
Reason is a very low attenuation, the most limiting factor for CATV transmissions up to
100m. See page 30 for more information.
Since as yet no data application requires this bandwidth, a category 5E insert can be used,
resulting in a class D link with 10/100/1000 MBit Ethernet application support. Then, when a
higher link class is needed, the system can be upgraded to either link class E, EA, F and FA.
Further configurations and options can be found on the following pages.
Remember: There is no substitute for bandwidth, except more bandwidth.

Pic. 14: RJ 45 Insert
Pic. 12: Triple Insert CATV/Ethernet/Telephone
Pic. 11: TERA
TM
Insert
Pic. 13: Sub D9 Insert
The fact that two connector interfaces are
standardized for link class F in the EN 50173
Standard shows how important this choice is.
A TERA insert is already available for the
AMP CO Plus System.
AMP CO Plus users have a completely
independent choice of which connector interface
to use, when to use them and for what application.
As well as standard RJ 45 inserts in both single
and double variants, it is also possible to operate
CATV and D-sub9 inserts as well.
The AMP CO System exploits the fact that many
services only use 2 of the 4 available pairs, so
either a fully loaded single insert or an application
specific dual insert can be used. This makes the
system very flexible and economic because of the
different utilization.
A look back in time, to when modern data system
were conceived, will show just how important this
flexibility is. In addition to various RJ 45 connector
interfaces, IBM and BNC connectors, there were
also different impedance environments from 93 Ω
to 150 Ω that required impedance matching.
This feature is used in the CATV insert, which has
an impedance match from 100 Ω to 75 Ω.
The need for awkward and susceptible external
converters can be avoided by changing the insert
with integrated impedance matching. The AMP
CO system has always enabled all environments
to be supported over a single network
infrastructure.

8. Application Options
Many different applications can be supported.
Application Scenarios:
On the following pages you will find examples of possible configurations. The colour blue
denotes an alternative configuration. The cable length is dependent on the respective link
length. The number of wall outlets determines the number of patch panels.
In chapter 19 you will find concrete examples of designs with some case studies.
Note: The following examples based on DIN Outlets and RAL 7035 patch panels. In case of
another installation environment, please check the EMEA catalogue or page 54-56 in this
book.
Pic. 15: Different Inserts

14
Scenario 1: 2 cables per work area
This scenario is frequently found, as it is possible to use the triple insert for one link. In
addition to telephone and fax connections, an Ethernet or fast Ethernet connection can be
made. The remaining outlet is provided with a blind insert and can be activated for future
applications.

By simply inserting the adapter, the link is fully wired and activated. This option is very
economical, since the migration towards Gigabit Ethernet occurs slowly. The use of Gigabit
Ethernet in the work area demands powerful backbone and/or campus cabling, which must
be upgraded first in many cases.

As well with three cables some efficient configurations are possible. Three cables are
commonly used in a double work area or a work zone. Then this efficient configuration can
be used, giving a clear demonstration of the benefits of the system.

Comparison: AMP CO Plus and a conventional cabling system
Only 3 cables are used instead of 8. As a result, there is more room in the pathways and
considerably less fire protection is required making it more economical.
Additionally there is also less cable to lay and terminate; a clear demonstration of one of the
many financial advantages of the AMP CO Plus System.
Pic. 22a: Comparison AMP CO Plus/Conventional cabling

21
9. Technical performance overview
The following summary shows what options the system has to offer. It also clearly
demonstrates that the installed link is the constant, whilst the adapter insert represents the
variable, thereby making all link classes from D to F possible. “Class G” refers to 1200 MHz
non standard solution. Trends and technologies come and go and the only certainty is that
they will keep on changing.
AMP CO Plus will help to manage change, growing with each specific demand in your
organization. Best example is the current Class EA and FA definition driven by 10 Gigabit
Ethernet. While AMP CO fully supports all present definitions of both classes (page 7), all
existing UTP systems do not support 10 Gigabit up to 100m.
Pic. 22b: Performance overview

22
10. Power over Ethernet
Power over Ethernet (PoE) is one of the latest
technologies that will quickly penetrate the market and will
be of major consideration for network designers and
planners in the future.
PoE means that power (energy) as well as data is supplied by the twisted pair data line. The
exact specification allows for 48 V (57 V max.) at maximum 15,4 Watts.
The IEEE has produced the 802.3af standard for PoE, in which three different options for
deploying PoE are defined:
• Endpoint PSE Mode A
• Endpoint PSE Mode B
• Midspan PSE Mode B
10.1 Endpoint PSE Mode A
In this mode the operating voltage is supplied over data pairs 1,2 and 3,6. This mode is also
known as phantom powering and is the required mode for services that do not provide any
spare pairs (i.e. Gigabit Ethernet).
The same applies with the double inserts for the ACO System. For example if Ethernet and
ISDN are transmitted over the same cable, there are no spare pairs available.
This is then the only mode that permits the data and power supply to be operated
simultaneously.
Pic. 23: Power over Ethernet, Mode A 802.3af

23
10.2 Endpoint PSE Mode B
In this mode the operating voltage is supplied over the spare pairs (i.e. pairs 4,5 and 7,8).
The power supply is energised directly by the switch.
10.3 Midspan PSE Mode B
This mode also uses the spare pairs, but the power is fed via an additional Midspan Unit.
This is a good alternative for existing cable plants during the transitional period. It is however
anticipated that future switches will be fitted with a PoE function. As a result, Endpoint PSE
Mode A will play an increasingly important role.
Pic. 24: Power over Ethernet Mode B 802.3af
Pic. 25: Power over Ethernet Modus B Midspan 802.3af

24
AMP Netconnect has developed external Midspan power units in accordance to IEEE
802.3af. The units has some additional beneficial features:
o Fully compliant to IEEE 802.3af
o Full power (15,4 Watt on each port)
o 8 port modular construction
o Supports 1000 Base-T
o Controlled and low heating radiation
Because of the modular construction, the user is able to upgrade step by step as network
demands grow. See page 36 for more information’s.
For bigger installations AMP Netconnect offers a 24 port Midspan with SNMP support. As
well as the 8 port unit, all ports are fully powered with 15,4 Watt.

25
11. AMP CO Plus Power Multiplexing
What is AMP CO Plus Power Multiplexing?
A closer look at the various modes shows that:
If the user uses a dual insert, there are no unused pairs as all 4 pairs are used.
Consequently it is not possible to operate PSE B. The Midspan Mode also uses the unused
pairs, so that is not suitable either.
Therefore: only Mode A will work.
Important: This statement only applies to the use of dual AMP CO Plus inserts. When single
inserts are used, the system is fully wired.
Why the PoE insert?
This insert ensures that the power is modulated to pairs 1,2 and 3,6
enabling the other pair to be used for data and power.
The insert ensures that an operating mode compliant with
IEEE 802.3 af is achieved, if the source powers on Mode B.
Advice for Cisco users: Cisco uses pairs 1,2 and 3,6 in non-compliant terminals. Therefore
the dual Ethernet inserts can be used.
Recommendation: AMP Netconnect supplies inserts with the PoE labelling so that it is
always clear whether there is a PoE function or not, especially in the user work area.
Most sources power with Mode A, hence there is no need for this insert.
Pic. 26: AMP CO Power Mulitplexing

26
12. Power over Ethernet and ACO Plus PoE Inserts
With ACO and PoE inserts all terminals can be operated in compliance with IEEE 802.3 af.
The configuration is for Mode A and B as follows:
• Switch (with PoE)
• ACO Patch Panel (PoE Patch Panel Insert)
• Link
• Wall outlet (PoE Outlet Insert)
Pic. 27: Configuration Switch with Power Function

27
The configuration is for Mode B Midspan as follows:
• Switch (without PoE)
• PoE Midspan Unit
• ACO Patch Panel (PoE Patch Panel Insert)
• Link
• Wall outlet (PoE Outlet Insert)
This type of network equipment is still not widely available and if the switches are still very
new, the Midspan Mode offers the best solution in financial terms. This enables the use of
the existing hardware and it is easy to provide users with Power over Ethernet.
Pic. 28: Configuration with an external Midspan Unit (Mode B Midpsan)

13. TV Application
An insert for video and TV applications is available
for the structured premises cabling for the AMP CO
Plus System. These inserts allow video signals from
surveillance cameras and video recorders as well
as analogue and digital television and radio
channels up to the frequency band of 862 MHz to
be transmitted over the structured premises cabling
(Twisted Pair).
The F connector used in the insert is well known in
the field of satellite technology and has very good
transmission properties up to approx. 2 GHz.
Impedance matching of 75 Ohm (coax) to 100 Ohm
(Twisted Pair) is produced in the AMP CO insert.
The following frequency bands are available for distributing TV signals for cable and
terrestrial systems:
Band Description Frequency range Application Medium
VHF I VHF Band I 41-68 MHz TV Terrestrial and cable
VHF II VHF Band II 87,5-108 MHz Radio Terrestrial and cable
USB Midband 111-125 MHz Radio Terrestrial and cable
USB Midband 125-174 MHz TV Terrestrial and cable
VHF III VHF Band III 174-230 MHz TV Terrestrial and cable
OSB Superband 230-300 MHz TV Terrestrial and cable
ESB Hyperband 300-470 MHz TV/Radio Terrestrial and cable
UHF I UHF Band I 470-582 MHz TV Terrestrial and cable
UHF II UHF Band II 582-862 MHz DVB Cable
For reasons of economy, most channels transmitting over the cable broadband network are
below 450 MHz and terrestrial channels are below 600 MHz.
Frequencies below 41 MHz can not be transmitted!
13.1 Technical Facts
In TV engineering transmitters normally work with output signals of 75dBµV whilst receivers
need a signal of 55dBµV for perfect reconstruction. This means that the attenuation of the
link shall not exceed 20 dB. Consequently for a purely passive link supporting a bandwidth
of 862 MHz the maximum link length should not exceed approx. 25 meter, for a bandwidth of
Pic. 29: Triple Insert with CATV Interface

29
600 MHz approx. 40 meter and for a bandwidth of 450 MHz 50 Meter for 600 MHz (Cat. 7)
cables.
13.2 Use of Preamplifiers
In order to increase the maximum range in a specific frequency band, preamplifiers with
equalisation adjustment can be installed in a TV system to balance the attenuation (Pic 30).
In view of the maximum permitted signal amplitude of 105 dBµV, standard signal amplifiers
with a gain of up to 30 dB can be used in the patch panel. This increases the link length in
the frequency band up to 862 MHz to approx. 80 meters. The link length up to 600 MHz and
below is 90 meters in the horizontal premises area, which is the maximum length as per
EN 50173.
Illustration 30 shows the attenuation of a TV link in relation to the frequency and length. It is
clear that the attenuation increases as the frequency and length increases (90 meter link
purple, 15 meter link blue).

13.3 CATV receiver units
The permitted input levels of the receiver units shall be not exceeded. On the receiver side
signals should lie within the window from 55dbµV to 72dBµV. Values above or below can
have a negative impact on transmission quality. Below 55dBµV the signal is unfavourable in
terms of the signal-to-noise ratio (S/N ratio) whilst above 72 dBµV saturation effects can
occur.

14. Telephone Application
Today every typical work area is equipped with a telephone in addition to the data port.
Three different technologies are available
• Analogue
• Digital (ISDN)
• VoIP
Various inserts are available for the analogue and ISDN applications.
Analogue
A double insert can certainly be used here in order to run two telephones from one cable,
thereby saving one cable.

This insert must also be used in the patch panel located in the floor distributor where the
telephony services are distributed from, as well in the wall outlet.
Therefore 4 telephones can be run from a single cable. This arrangement is very economical
for planning working areas, where several users are found.
Unlike a standard cabling system, which would require 4 cables, the AMP CO Plus System
needs only one.
See the example on page 20.
Pic. 32: 4 x Analogue Telephone

33
ISDN S0 Bus
ISDN basically requires 4 wires and can be regarded as a bus.
The simple model uses a dual insert. This is fitted with the 100 Ω terminal resistors, which
are required by definition.

34
A 4x insert is also available, as for the analogue telephone, enabling 4 ISDN devices to be
run from a single cable.
In this case 2x ISDN S0 buses are fed on the panel side. On the wall outlet side there are
then 2 ports available for each S0 Bus. Since the basic version of ISDN offers 2 active
channels, 4 terminals can be operated independently. This means that the cable is fully
occupied, making it considerably more economical than standard cabling, which uses one
cable per telephone. The terminal resistors are already fitted in this configuration too.

15. Active port expansion
Another key feature of the
AMP CO Plus system is the
outlet switch. This is plugged
into the wall outlet in the place
of an insert, thereby extending
the connection by three
switched ports.
The ports offer either
10/100 or 1000 MBit/s.
The switch controls the speed
by “auto sensing”.
The power is supplied via the
Midspan Unit, which can of
course also be used for other
terminals.
An example of an AMP
Netconnect solution will be
shown on the next page.
The switch is an IEEE 802.3 af
compatible device and ready
for immediate use.
This is a very efficient and fast
way to extend the ports.
Pic. 38: Gigabit Ethernet Outlet Switch
Pic. 37: Configuration Outlet Switch with Midspan Unit (Mode B Midpsan)

36
Midspan Power Unit
As mentioned on page 24, IEEE has defined in 802.3 af as one of the modes an external
Midspan Power Mode. An external solution is a great opportunity to extend the value of the
existing hardware as it saves on investing in additional switches.
Another good reason is the fact that the power supply and the data ports are separated.
With a defined maximum of 15,4 Watt on each port, the heat dissipation is separated which
may prevent some heating problems in the
rack.
Problems can occur within some installations if
the power supply is included in the switch.
If the space is limited and the rack is full,
a hot spot can occur. AMP Netconnect has
developed a modular solution, so the customer
is able to migrate step by step as and when
needed.
Additionally, the modules are standardized to
provide 10/100 Mbit as well 1000 Mbit/s in the
auto sense mode.
Even though most of the applications will use
10 or 100 Mbit/s, the option for 1000 Mbit/s is a
great future proofing feature.
As already mentioned above, the maximum
power output is defined at 15,4 Watts per port.
AMP Netconnect provides full power on all
ports.
All modules can be mounted in a 19-inch 1U panel. Maintenance updates, additions or
changes can be done easily.
A good example is the scenario shown on page 35. The outlet switch is receiving power over
the data line from the Midpsan Unit.
The market for remote powered devices will increase within the next years.
IP cameras, IP telephones and W-LAN access points are only the start. The modular
solution can grow with individual customer's specific demands and will help to keep costs
down. Detailed product information can be downloaded from the web site.

16. Multiple Service Provision
Twisted pair cabling systems transmit information to support different services. Each cable
consists of 4 pairs.
The services utilize the cables in different ways. For example, an analogue telephone needs
only one pair, whilst Gigabit Ethernet requires all four. Many services use two pairs.
Service
1 pair 2 pairs 4 pairs
Ethernet X
Fast Ethernet X
Gigabit Ethernet X
ISDN X
Analogue telephone X
CATV X
As a rule of the cabling standard the jack/connector can accommodate 8 wires. This makes
sense, since it ensures that services such as Gigabit Ethernet can be operated. In practice,
however, 2-pair services are generally used and consequently a range of different
configurations can be found.
A pair assignment is given to each service.
Service
PINs 1,2 Pins 3,6 Pins 4,5 Pins 7,8
Ethernet X X
Fast Ethernet X X
Gigabit Ethernet X X X X
ISDN S0 X X
Analogue telephone X
CATV X
Thanks to its modular design and the use of inserts, AMP CO Plus offers the freedom of
choice. The decision-making occurs in the selection of the inserts, since this is where the
pairs are allocated to the correct contacts in the RJ 45 jack.

38
It is useful to know that each correct pin assignment will be done in the insert. In theory then,
virtually any combination is possible to deliver a wide range of services to a single work
area. The example above is very common because it is so easy to provide two networks
services with one cable. As Fast Ethernet is defined on pairs 1,2 and 3,6 the correct
assignment is provided by the Fast Ethernet Dual Insert.
Pic. 40: Principle sheath sharing

39
Fast Ethernet and telephone is another favourite combination. This corresponds to a basic
configuration in almost all work areas. Fast Ethernet and telephone is another favourite
combination. This corresponds to a basic configuration in almost all work areas today. The
AMP CO Plus System offers a variety of options. In addition to the dual inserts, triple and
quad inserts are also available. Accordingly optimum economy can be achieved every time.
Pic. 41: Sheath sharing with Ethernet and Telephone

40
Standard systems only make use of one part of the cable. Since a very inhomogeneous
terminal culture prevails in many environments, only a small percentage of the cable is fully
used throughout the world. In other words, approx. 90% of the cable is used to only 50% of
their capacity!
Even if the numbers of terminals increase, using the cable to 100% capacity, there still
remains a huge unused potential. With AMP CO Plus the infrastructures can always be used
to full capacity.
17. Cost-effectiveness
The cost-effectiveness of every investment must be scrutinized and the following points
taken into consideration.
• Lifetime of the equipment
• Amount of investment
• Additional cost of modifications/secondary cost
• Utilization of the potential
It is worth that frequently only the one-off investment costs are taken into consideration. In
fact in many cases only the material cost of the initial investment is considered.
Consequently, what at first appears to be a good investment can in the end turn out to be
more costly. A good example is 10 Gigabit Ethernet. A lot of existing Cat. 6 cabling systems
are unable to support this. A re-cabling is necessary. AMP CO Plus is ready now without any
modification.
The serviceable life of the equipment varies, but can be up to a maximum of 10 year. And
this is where AMP CO Plus has the advantage.
There are two financial advantages compared with standard systems:
In the initial investment:
• Less cables
• Less space required in the cable trays, so the cable ducts can be smaller
• Less fire-proofing and fire load
• No ANEXT testing necessary therefore fully 10G certification
Long-term:
• Adaptation to new technologies and new standard compliant connector interfaces
• Adaptation to higher bandwidth requirements
• No costly re-cabling required
The key aspect here is the freedom of choice!

41
There is no need to decide immediately
whether a complete Class F installation is
necessary, or indeed to choose the
interface, as the user can make these
decisions at a later date.
In this particular example, two connector
interfaces are standardised for class F link
performance. (See page 12).
Here too selective insert choice also has
the advantage that it is only necessary to activate those ports that are going to be used. This
is the case if an upgrade from Cat.6 to Cat. 7 is necessary or when some users have a
specific demand. Users of the AMP CO Plus System can take their time and make the
investment selectively if necessary.
With conventional systems on the other hand, complete panels and wall outlets have to be
changed. History shows that this was the case in 2000, when Gigabit Ethernet was ratified.
The same will happen for 10 Gigabit Ethernet, since most of existing Cat. 6 systems will not
support this. Finally conventional systems have to be re-certified. This is not necessary with
the AMP CO System.
Cable trays and fireproofing
When designing cable networks the designer must calculate the correct size of the cable
trays and ducts or the corresponding space in the raised floor.
Many cables can rapidly accumulate here and in recent years the cables have been getting
thicker and thicker. A PiMF 600 MHz cable is
with 7,3 mm even now lower in diameter then
the newest generation of UTP cables with
approx. 7.8 mm and a 1200 MHz cable now has
a diameter of 8,1 mm, so it is critical to provide
adequate dimensioning of cable pathway
systems. AMP CO Plus helps to keep the fill
ratio at a minimum. The fire sealing is applied in
the openings between two parts of a building.
The more cable there is, the larger the opening
and therefore the more fire-proofing required.
Positive side effect: The overall potential fire
load is reduced at the same time.
If you start with 3 cables for 1-2 work areas, as
outlined in the example on pages 20 - 21, the same number of ports would be achieved with
8 cables in standard systems.
Pic. 43: Comparison 30 to 15 cables in a cable duct
Pic. 42: Comparison UTP and STP Cables

42
With reference to picture 43, 5 complete areas could be equipped with the 15 cables. In
standard systems 40 cables would be needed, that is 10 more than in the lower cable
channel in illustration 41. In installations with several hundred connection points, it is easy to
see how full the channels become.
With 10 Gigabit Ethernet a new important point
has to be considered:
Complete certification on the side for the
forthcoming Class EA and FA.
This means particular ANEXT and AFEXT testing.
This is in the filed not possible, as each potential
victim cable has to be known and secondly 6
additional testes are necessary.
All shielded systems as well AMP CO fulfil those
requirements by design. There is no additional
testing necessary. Certification can be done as
today.
There are economic benefits of up to 30%. Right
from the beginning the investment is smaller with
AMP CO Plus than with a standard system, due to the reduced quantities of cable and
secondary costs such as cable path ways, fireproofing and certification costs. This also
emerged in the comparison of systems described on page 41.
At the same time, the serviceable life of the system is of course longer, without the need for
expensive re-cabling projects.

18. Integration in designer faceplate series
Today’s users often choose a designer faceplate series, which can be selected to match the
interior of the room or building. It is important to ensure that the respective range is fully
compatible with the communication outlets.
As a result of years of working in cooperation with the faceplate
industry, a solution for the AMP CO System is available in most
cases. A matching insert is generally available for the chosen
range for inclusion in the installation kit.
On the website at http://www.ampnetconnect.de you will find an
AMP CO Plus configurator for DIN style environment which are
standard on the German and Austrian markets, but is often used
in many other markets. In addition there are solutions for EDIZIOdue, which is applicable for
the Swiss market. The French market is served with the Mosaic solution. For the Australian
and New Zealand markets, appropriate faceplates (Clipsal 2nd
series etc.) are also available.
Note: In any case of uncertainty, please contact your local sales office in the respective
country. See page 60 for details.
Solutions are also available for the under floor area, where kits are compatible with most of
current solutions and providers in the market.
This guarantees that the product is compatible with most of the current designer faceplate
series.

19. Designing with AMP CO Plus
Designing with AMP CO Plus is different from standard systems. There are some specifics,
which you need to be bear in mind.
A summary of the most important are:
• One cable must be connected to each outlet
• A link (outlet-panel) contains always the same inserts (except the telephone)
• Certification always takes place with the single insert
Example I
A new building with 200 work areas is to be constructed. There will be 3 cables per work
area. A data/telephone connection and a fully wired insert will be installed in each work area.
The third outlet will be reserved for future applications and fitted with a blank insert.
It is assumed that a 1200 MHz cable (AWG22) and an average cable length of 60 m will be
installed. Angled wall outlets are used, colour RAL 1013. The floor distributor will house a
16-port panel. This gives the following:

45
Position Product Order Number Quantity
1 PiMF cable, AWG 22, 1200 MHz 0-1499101-1 36.000 m
2 Patch Panel, 16 Port 0-1394573-1 38 items
3 Angled Wall Outlet 2-1394582-1 600 items
4 2x Insert Data/Telephone Cat. 6 0-0336549-5 400 items
5 1x Insert, Universal, Cat. 6 0-0336548-5 400 items
6 Blank Insert 0-0555644-5 408 items
7 1x Single Insert (for certification) 0-0336548-5 2 items
Example II
A new building for 750 employees is to be built. Double work areas are planned, with 4
cables connected to each area. A data/telephone connection will be installed in the work
area. The third and fourth outlet will be reserved for future applications and fitted with two
blank inserts. It is assumed that a 1200 MHz cable (AWG22) and an average cable length of
60 m will be installed. Angled wall outlets are used, colour RAL 1013. The floor distributor
will house a 24-port panel. This gives the following:

46
Position Product Order Number Quantity
1 PiMF cable, AWG 22, 1200 MHz 0-1499101-1 180.000 m
2 Patch Panel, 24 Port 0-1394574-1 125 items
3 Angled Wall Outlet 2-1394582-1 3000 items
4 2x Insert Data/Telephone, Cat. 6 0-0336549-5 3000 items
6 Blank Insert 0-0555644-5 3000 items
7 1x Single Insert (for certification) 0-0336548-5 2 items
This configuration is very suitable for medium to large companies. Frequent moves create
ever-changing situations yet this configuration allows an extra employee to be connected at
any time. The two spare ports leave all future connectivity options open, such as Power over
Ethernet or CATV applications.
Installation
With higher frequencies and more sensitive services the
installation is one important part to provide a certain
performance. AMP Netconnect provides a special tool to
terminate the edge connector always with the same
quality and makes installations as easy as possible.
The procedure is as follows.
1. As usual the cable has to be prepared.
2. The Shielded edge connector and the cable have
to be placed in the mould
3. Activate the pistol grip. The conductors will be
cut automatically. Remove the edge connector.
4. Finished.

20 Testing Procedure
The design of the ACO Plus system requires the following testing procedure to be followed.
All links shall be certified with a single insert. The insert 0336548-x shall be used for
certifying a Class E link, 1711409-x for Class F.
This procedure is absolutely essential in order to include all requisite parameters and to be
compliant to ISO 11801 and EN50173. For instance, it is not possible to measure
POWERSUM values with a dual insert. Once the certification has been completed
successfully the desired insert can be mounted on the wall outlet and the patch panel.
It is necessary to follow the instructions of the testing instrument manufacturer.
The following points shall be considered before start with testing:
• Condition of test cables and adapters
• Calibration of the test equipment
• Current status of the software
• Correct settings of the parameters
Testing above 500 MHz
Testing above this frequency is sensitive and care shall be taken into consideration.
All new existing testers (August 2006) on the market are able to measure up to 1000 MHz,
but they do it with a measurement uncertainty up to 5 dB!
This means in regards to interpretation of results that this range is around the shown value.
In other words, even results closed to the limits may have enough headroom and opposite.
This means that for certain parameters (e.g. RL), this range in measurement uncertainty is
nearly the same as the expected value at 500 MHz! For class F and FA the only allowed
method is a channel test, hence the patchcords have a tremendous effect. Make sure that
they are always in good conditions.
ANEXT field testing
As all shielded systems have a superior coupling attenuation, field testing of ANEXT is not
necessary. It’s fulfilled by the shielded design, while all UTP systems have to be tested.
Certification with AMP CO
