Arlington, VA (April 29, 2019) – The Telecommunications Industry Association’s (TIA) TR-42 Telecommunications Cabling Systems Engineering Committee has a new document on balun requirements and specifications and seeks participation in these projects from the user and general interest communities.

The TR- 42.7 Engineering Subcommittee on Copper Cabling Systems (568) has released TIA-568.2-D-1 Balun Requirements for Category 8 Testing. This new document is an amendment to require balun specifications used for testing Category 8 cabling and components described in ANSI/TIA-568.2-D. To learn more about ANSI/TIA-568.2-D, click here.

A major function of the Telecommunications Industry Association (TIA) is the writing and maintenance of voluntary industry standards and specifications. These activities are carried out by the volunteer members of TIA engineering committees. Recent meeting reports, agendas and notices for upcoming meetings, as well as links to some of the most popular standards from each committee are available on TIA’s public engineering committee pages.
