TIA has honored longtime TR-42 leader and contributor Jonathan Jew with its highest honor, the Lifetime Achievement Award saying, Jonathan has dedicated over two decades to TIA’s TR-42 and Technical Advisory Groups, holding various leadership roles such as Chair, Vice Chair, Secretary, and Editor. He has been instrumental in shaping TIA’s acclaimed data center standard, ANSI/TIA-942, and has made significant contributions to a wide range of premises and supporting standards.
The Telecommunications Industry Association has published ANSI/TIA-942-C Data Center Telecommunications Infrastructure Standard. Approved for publication earlier this year, the “C” revision of the 942 standard includes several significant modifications from the “B” version, including the incorporation of previously published standards documents, recognition of a new media type and connectivity, new requirements, new recommendations, and references to technical documentation published by other standards-development organizations.

In this blog CommScope discusses how industry standards for optical fiber cables components systems and applications continue to progress in an effort to ensure interoperability performance uniform testing and support for the latest technologies bandwidth demand and industry initiatives.
The Data Center Summit will take place November 1 and 2, with sessions covering data center cabling, cooling, artificial intelligence, and other driving forces.
Widespread IoT adoption creates more entry points into corporate networks, inherently expanding the cyberattack surface. Due to their specialized nature and limited computational ability, IoT devices are highly vulnerable, which hampers the integration of adequate security measures. To help protect networks, TIA published the first-ever global Cybersecurity and Supply Chain Security Standard (SCS 9001), to verify that networks and their supporting hardware and software components and subcomponents meet critical security benchmarks to mitigate the risk of cybersecurity attacks.
As the TIA TR-60 ICT Lifecycle Management Standards are introduced into IT and ICT workstreams, this new Day 2 thinking may not be intuitive to some professionals in areas like HR, Governance, Supply Chain and Security. This webinar, presented by Jerry Bowman TR-60 Chair and David Cuthbertson TR-60.B Subcommittee Chair will introduce the listener to some of the business problems that TR-60 will solve, and provide guidance on the use case for the thirty (30) standards as they’re released. The webinar will also provide some examples of the planned TR-60 technology management benchmarking system to allow technology stakeholders to set performance objectives and measure achievement of them. Benchmarking is vital to finding areas of opportunity to monitor, improve and empower every internal and outsourced IT department resulting in the right processes and overall productivity, which all drive revenue. The TR-60 TSB webinar will introduce the concepts, desired outcomes and some early prescriptive guidance on how to use TR-60 to achieve them. #supplychainmanagement #TR-60 #TIAstandards #ITgovernance
The Telecommunications Industry Association (TIA) today announced it has confirmed Kevin Gallagher, Senior Advisor to the Secretary of the U.S. Department of Commerce, as a featured keynote speaker at the BEAD Success Summit, being held April 19 -20, in Arlington, Virginia.
The summit will bring together all of the key stakeholders in the $42 billion program to discuss the Broadband, Equity, Access and Deployment (BEAD) Notice of Funding Opportunity (NoFo) and technology alternatives in plenary sessions, panel discussions and technical breakouts.
New standard will cover VCSEL-based duplex 100G-per-lane transmission over short reach (SR) distances of up to 100 m and very short reach (VR) requirements of up to 50 m on OM4 and OM5 multimode fiber.
with the adoption of smart building technologies, more devices than ever are being connected to and powered by the network. Today’s LAN environments commonly encounter situations in which a connected end device is located too far from the nearest TR to maintain the 100m distance limitation.
It has long been known that twisted-pair copper cabling is one standards-based option for connecting devices beyond 100m, but there is confusion in the industry about the distances that twisted-pair copper cables can reliably support at various transmission speeds and remote powering levels. To strategically address scenarios where a device is located beyond 100m with reduced risk, information and communications technology (ICT) professionals need to understand the pros and cons of the various options, technical factors involved, and key considerations surrounding testing to help them identify reality and navigate claims.
