Like many issues of Cabling Installation & Maintenance, this one includes several references to standards and standards-making organizations. For example, Ron Tellas mentions ANSI/TIA-758-B in his article on outside plant cabling. BICSI’s new intelligent building design standard, ANSI/BICSI 007, is part of our news coverage. And we discuss the merger of the Telecommunications Industry Association (TIA) and QuEST Forum in this issue as well.
