ThegrowingacceptanceofVoIPimplementationsiscausingmajorchangesin
thewayinfrastructureisdesignedandimplemented.Thefundamentalchange
between a traditional phone system and a VoIP implementation is that each
handsetstationconnectstoadataportinsteadofananalogcircuitcardinthe
PBX/Switchboard. To accommodate the requirement of supporting multiple
voice ports from an Ethernet switch, each telephone location in the guest
roomswillnowhavetohaveitsowndedicatedCategory6cable,homerunto

the VoIP phones as they are no longer powered by the PBX/Switchboard.
Power over Ethernet Switches may require UPS in the Telco Closets to guard
againstpowerfailurewhichwillcausethetelephonestofail.
3.
Oneoftheprimarygoalsofthisdocumentwithconcerntovoiceinfrastructure
is the specification of a traditional voice distribution system that, when
installed to these standards, will allow for an efficient migration to a VoIP
system with a minimum amount of labor and the reutilization of installed
infrastructure.

Although coaxial cable is still the standard wiring for television systems, IP
based systems are becoming more popular and may begin to replace coaxial

forthemigrationtoIPTVatafuturetime.Asaminimum,inordertoprepare
the hotel adequately for short term changes to the inroom entertainment
system, we strongly recommend Licensees add a three quarter inch (3/4)

1.
There is an extreme difference between the wiring used for Closed Circuit
Television (CCTV) and that used for the installation of Community Access
(Cable)TelevisionDistributionSystems(CATV).
2.
CCTVcamerasarealmostexclusivelylowvoltage(24VAC)andsomeareeven
as low as 12VAC. As such, their output is somewhat weak and susceptible to
Radio Frequency Interference (RFI), and there are some limitations to cable
lengthruns,unlessFiberisused.Becauseofthesetypesofconcerns,itisour
recommendation that the Coaxial cable placed must be of a high quality
RG59/U, 20 gauge, solid copper center, not braided or stranded, and with at
least95%copperbraidshielded.Theuseof22gaugecenterwireand/orless
that 95% braided copper shielding can severely impact camera performance

Most CCTV connections are of the 'BNC' type. However, 'RCA' and 'F' type
connectors are also common. The 20gauge Coax makes for easier and more

ThegrowingacceptanceofVoIPimplementationsiscausingmajorchangesin
thewayinfrastructureisdesignedandimplemented.Thefundamentalchange
between a traditional phone system and a VoIP implementation is that each
handset station connects to a data port and thus can be treated as such. For
security or performance it may be preferable to segregate this voice traffic
from data traffic via the use of VLANs or use completely separate switches,
routers,feeders,etcAlso,thereistheconcernoverwhereandhowtopower
these nodes as traditional TDM PBXs power the phones and in a VoIP
environment,powercomesfromtheLANswitches.

to provide coordination of work of this specification and of other trades, and
providetechnicalinformationwhenrequestedbyothertrades.Itisrecommended
thatthispersonmaintaincurrentRCDD(RegisteredCommunicationsDistribution
Designer) registration and that they be responsible for quality control during
installation,equipmentsetup,andtesting.
B. At least 30 percent of installation personnel must be BICSI Registered
Telecommunications Installers. Of that number, at least 15 percent must be
registered at the Technician Level, at least 40 percent must be registered at the
InstallerLevel2,andthebalancemustberegisteredattheInstallerLevel1.
Note: Use these minimum qualifications or augment to meet manufacturers
requirements for installer qualifications to meet extended warranty program
requirements.

D. The Project Manager must have complete responsibility for the overall success of
this wiring plans implementation in their project. That person would have the
obligationtocommunicatetothevoiceanddatavendorsallthestandardsofthis
document and advise them as to any consequences this may have on the
installationofvoiceordataequipment.Thatinformationshouldbecommunicated
to the vendor in writing prior to the installation of any systems that are to be
connected directly or indirectly to the cabling infrastructure. It is strongly
recommended that the Project Manager obtain, in writing, a signoff from each
voice and data vendor, acknowledging their acceptance of the Hilton Worldwide
Wiring Standards and the compliance of their systems with that Standards
requirements.
