FOREWORD
1) ISO (International Organization for Standardization) and IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission) form the
specialized system for worldwide standardization. National bodies that are members of ISO or IEC participate in
the development of International Standards through technical committees established by the respective
organization to deal with particular fields of technical activity. ISO and IEC technical committees collaborate in
fields of mutual interest. Other international organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with
ISO and IEC, also take part in the work.
2) In the field of information technology, ISO and IEC have established a joint technical committee, ISO/IEC JTC 1.
Draft International Standards adopted by the joint technical committee are circulated to national bodies for voting.
Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the national bodies casting a vote.
3) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.

4) No liability shall attach to IEC or ISO or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts
and members of their technical committees and IEC or ISO member bodies for any personal injury, property
damage or other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees)
and expenses arising out of the publication of, use of, or reliance upon, this ISO/IEC publication or any other IEC,
ISO or ISO/IEC publications.

5) Attention is drawn to the normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
indispensable for the correct application of this publication.

6) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this International Standard may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO and IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.

The main task of IEC and ISO technical committees is to prepare International Standards. In
exceptional circumstances, a technical committee may propose the publication of a technical
report of one of the following types:

• type 1, when the required support cannot be obtained for the publication of an
International Standard, despite repeated efforts;
• type 2, when the subject is still under technical development or where, for any other
reason, there is the future but not immediate possibility of an agreement on an
International Standard;
• type 3, when the technical committee has collected data of a different kind from that which
is normally published as an International Standard, for example ‘state of the art’.

Technical reports of types 1 and 2 are subject to review within three years of publication to
decide whether they can be transformed into International Standards. Technical reports of
type 3 do not necessarily have to be reviewed until the data they provide are considered to be
no longer valid or useful.

ISO/IEC TR 24746, which is a technical report of type 2, was prepared by subcommittee 25:
Interconnection of information technology equipment, of ISO/IEC joint technical committee 1:
Information technology.

This publication has been drafted in accordance with ISO/IEC directives, Part 2.

This document is issued in the type 2 technical report series of publications (according to
16.2.2 of the Procedures for the technical work of ISO/IEC JTC 1 (5 th edition, 2004)) as a
prospective standard for provisional application in the field of generic cabling for customer
premises, because there is an urgent requirement for guidance on how standards in this field
should be used.

This document is not to be regarded as an International Standard. It is proposed for

provisional application so that information and experience of its use in practice may be
gathered. Comments on the content of this document should be sent to IEC Central Office.

A review of this type 2 technical report will be carried out not later than three years after its
publication with the option of extension for a further three years, conversion into an
International Standard or withdrawal.

INTRODUCTION

Within ISO/IEC 11801 current carrying capacity is specified without clear specifications of the
ability of insertion of such current. This document specifies the location and allocation for
performance in conjunction with balanced cabling as specified in ISO/IEC 11801.

INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY –
GENERIC CABLING FOR CUSTOMER PREMISES –
MID-SPAN DTE POWER INSERTION

1 Scope

International Technical Report ISO/IEC TR 24746 specifies Mid-Span DTE Power insertion
into generic cabling as specified in ISO/IEC 11801, the location and allocation requirements
in case of the replacement of a generic cabling component or components.

2 Normative reference

The following referenced document is indispensable for the application of this document. For
dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of
the referenced document (including any amendments) applies.

ISO/IEC 11801:2002, Information technology- Generic cabling for customer premises

3 Abbreviations

DTE Data terminating equipment

4 General

This Technical Report specifies the location and allocations of Mid-Span DTE Power insertion
used to insert power into generic cabling as described in ISO/IEC 11801.

--`,``,,,```,,`,```,,-`-`,,`,,`,`,,`---
4.1 Location of Mid-Span DTE Power insertion devices

The location of Mid-Span DTE Power insertion devices shall be outside the Permanent Link
as defined in ISO/IEC 11801.

4.2 Mid-Span DTE Power device allocation

Mid-span DTE Power shall be inserted in such a way that the generic cabling channel
performance as specified in ISO/IEC 11801 is maintained.

This is assured if the following requirement is met.

When mid-span power insertion equipment replaces a generic cabling component or

components, it shall meet the performance requirements of the component or components it
replaces (e.g., patch cord, patch panel or any combination thereof), regardless of the
interfaces used for input and output connections.
