Other Responsibilities
- - Solid working knowledge of:
- - Pull and route data cables
- - TIA/EIA-568 termination standards (T568A/B, consistent throughout a job)
- - Proper bend radius for Cat6 to avoid signal degradation
- - NEC 800.133 separation requirements between low-voltage and line-voltage wiring
- - Maximum pulling tension guidelines — cable damage from over-pulling isn't always visible, but it shows up in certification testing
- - TIA-606 labeling standards
- - Comfortable using a certification tester (Fluke or equivalent) — not just a basic continuity tester
- - Experience with PoE cabling for cameras/access points specifically (voltage drop awareness on long runs)
- - Own basic hand tools; reliable transportation

- - Familiarity with rack/patch panel organization in a telecom closet
- Install supports (J-hooks, cable racks, conduit)
- Label and organize cabling
