BICSI RCDD-002 - BICSI Registered Communications Distribution Designer - RCDD

One advantage of using preconnectorized jumpers and cables is:

The RECOMMENDED balanced twisted-pair cable for building backbone cabling consists of ________ round solid copper conductors with a nominal characteristic of 100 ohm.

In reviewing your client's network needs for today and 5 years into the future, you note their current specs call for a 1Gb/s network within a campus environment, with little or no possibility of any increased bandwidth demands until they move to their planned future site. The building is not large, and the cable lengths will not exceed 550 m (1804 ft). Your recommendation for the fiber to be installed in the backbone is:

An installation crew is pulling an optical fiber cable into a riser. The cable has an outside diameter of 25 mm (1 in). As the cable is being pulled off the reel and through a pulley into the riser, you must verify that the minimum bend radius for the cable being pulled is observed. The pulley must be sized at a MINIMUM of:

You are reviewing a building backbone design with a vertically aligned telecommunications room (TR). In the spec you note in a footnote with details that the slots at one end of the telecommunications room (TR) must be flush with the floor and the sleeves provide at the end of the telecommunications room (TR) must also be flush. In your meeting with the electrical engineering firm that has provided the spec, you make the comment that according to best practices, the MINIMUM that slots and sleeves must extend above the finished floor are:

An outside plant (OSP) cable must be placed under a pipeline with two side by side pipe runs. The distance between the outside pipes is 6 m (20 ft). What is the length of the conduit required to facilitate the pipeline crossing?

Buildings larger than ________ must contain a dedicated room for the termination of entrance facilities.

When installing underground entrances, no more than ________ 90-degree bends should be included between pulling points.

You have the responsibility of designing a railroad track crossing for an outside plant OSP cable. There are three separate railroad tracks to be crossed. The measurement between the center of the two outer tracks is 16 m (52 ft). Using the standard track width of 1435 mm (4 ft 8.5 in), what is the length of the rigid steel conduit required to facilitate the crossing?

What is the MINIMUM vertical separation between the top rail of a railroad track and telecommunications facilities placed beneath the track?
