Home-run cable |
A cable run that connects a user outlet directly with the
telecommunications or wiring closet. This cable has no
intermediate splices, bridges, taps, or other connections.
Every cable radiates out from the central equipment or
wiring closet. This configuration is also known as star
topology and is the opposite of a daisy-chained cable
that may have taps or splices along its length. Home-run
cable is the recommended installation method for horizontal
cabling in a structured cabling system.
