1IntroductionThe University of Chicago and its affiliates depend on a highly robust communications networkinfrastructure in order to accomplish the mission of the University. The communications infrastructuremust be able to support all administrative and research functions along with support systems such asPublic Safety and Building Automation. Information Technology Services (ITS) is responsible for theinstallation and maintenance of this communications infrastructure.Constant change in communications technology drives the specifications within this document. Thecommunications infrastructure within a building represents a fifteen- to twenty-year investment. Withinthat infrastructure life cycle, communications and computing technology will go through severaliterations that will continue to rely on the installed infrastructure. Other factors such as the constant reprogramming of space to meet the changing needs of the University are drivers that require us to build ahigh quality, highly flexible infrastructure.2.0Planning and DesignThis document is published and maintained by Information Technology Services (ITS), and is intendedto serve as a guide for architectural design pertaining to the telecommunications infrastructure at theUniversity of Chicago. All construction and renovation projects on campus requiring communicationsservices from ITS must include this document as part of the project’s scope of work. It contains acomplete description of the University of Chicago’s Structured Cabling Specifications and Standards. Insome cases these requirements are stated in general terms due to rapid changes in technology. Therefore,ITS staff must be actively involved in the review of the communications infrastructure design frominception through construction. ITS infrastructure group must approve all communications designs,drawings and any modifications to the specifications listed in the Structured Wiring Plan. The FacilitiesServices Project Manager shall schedule regular design meetings with an ITS CommunicationsInfrastructure representative, ITS Network Engineering representative and the business owner(s)representative.Thomas Bolantbolan@uchicago.edu773-702-4959Patrick Hickey RCDDpjhickey@uchicago.edu773-702-31614University of ChicagoTelecommunications Structured CablingGuidelines and Specifications5/1/2015
