Differences between indoor and outdoor Network cables

As the name suggests, an outdoor network cable is a cable used outdoors. An indoor network cable is mainly used in an indoor network cable.

The biggest difference between an outdoor network line and an indoor network line is that the outdoor network line has two layers of external lines, but the indoor network line has only one layer of external lines.

The outer skin of the outdoor network line is much thicker than the outer skin of the indoor network, and a PE waterproof layer is added, which can effectively prevent the water from the inside of the network line, it can be tensile and compressive, and won't easily damage the outer skin and damage the copper core.

If the outer skin is not good enough, the outer skin is easily damaged and the network line conductor cannot be used.

In order to make the indoor cabling more flexible, the indoor network cable should be protected when wiring the pipe, especially when pulling the cable, it is easy to break down the wire core. If it is a better quality network cable, such as copper, oxygen-free copper network cable can also be used for a long time, there may also be a situation of disconnection, coupled with wind and rain, direct sunlight increases the possibility of damage to the outer skin of the network cable, which is the cause of unstable transmission speed.

The room outer line can be cabled not only outdoors, but also indoors. When the network cable needs to pass through the wall, the tensile strength of the room outer line can reduce the network cable damage. In particular, outdoor water blocking lines can be used in wet areas where moisture is heavy. For example, there is a special period in the south, that is, back to the south, that is, wet days, the most likely wet, the price of the outdoor water resistance line is not much higher than the indoor line, however, the function and service life are better than those of the indoor unit.

Outdoor cabling environments are often more difficult than indoor cabling. We recommend that you do not use the indoor network cable for outdoor cabling.

General Network Cabling Process

1. The first step is to measure the length of the Line.

Determine the location of the distribution frame, and then calculate the network cable used to mount the distribution frame and install the Cabinet based on the distance from the external Cabinet to facilitate the overall line management, if the cables are placed too long in the cabinet, it may lead to poor appearance, and the cable management is troublesome in the later stage. The cables can be neatly organized without interruption.

Next, we also need to take into account how the cables should be taken from the upper or lower part of the Cabinet after entering the cabinet. Do not bend or bypass some things as far as possible. We can move the cables from the rack to the rack, considering that the cabling direction cannot affect the entry of network devices, the staff must be able to predict.

2. Crop according to the length calculated in the first step

To cut out the excess, be sure to avoid affecting the appearance as much as possible, and leave a part of redundancy than the calculation. It is best to keep it up to 10 to 15 cm, including the length of the Cut-Off foreskin and the distribution frame. At this time, you do not need to put the cable from the external into the cabinet, because it will be difficult to arrange the cable.

3. Start line management.

Follow these steps:

A. Bind the cable with A cable tie where the root of the cable is exposed. If there are too many cables, the number of the hidden network cable is divided into two or more parts from the middle, however, we need to ensure that each part of the split network cable is continuous, because it is easy to perform the next step.

B. Use the distribution board to adjust the cables when most network cables are properly bundled as needed. The use of the distribution board is to strip the cables from the back of the distribution board to the distribution board according to a convention, tie the back of the distribution board together with two consecutive Network cables. Each two cables requires a dislocation, that is, do not tie too much side by side. It is best to keep a distance between the two cables, after the two cables are attached consecutively, the six network cables are bundled together. On average, the cables need to be re-bundled every half meter. Note that the cables must be neatly bundled, don't try to make people feel unharmonious together.

C. Use the cable Board to keep moving down, and the back of the cable board is always wrapped with a tie (half a rice ). At the last glance, the position of the six root cables is about one meter away from the end of the cable. After the cables are packed, the two root cables start to be tied in the distance. Of course, the cables are tied in order. Use the same method once again after every two cables are hashed down about half a meter, which is conducive to the next laying of distribution frames.

4. Start cabling

After the above work is done, the cables are already very clear, and the cables are moved out of the cabinet and placed on a workbench. A group of three people start to press the cables. It is not easy to make mistakes when pressing the line at the pre-arranged position. The detailed process steps of the line are not described here.
