During the meeting of the Telecommunications Industry Association (TIA) TR-42 Engineering Committee on Telecommunications Cabling Systems in February, the TR-42.1 Generic Telecommunications Cabling and Premises Cabling Subcommittee approved two project requests that ultimately will result in the revision of two long-standing cabling standards.
One project request approval kicked off the revision process of the TIA-570 Residential Telecommunications Infrastructure Standard from its C version to its D version. According to the official report from February’s TR-42 meeting, a first industry ballot for TIA-570-D is planned for the next meeting cycle. TR-42 and TR-42.1 next meet the week of June 12.
