4.1.4 Installation Locations and requirements
All RFS ClearFill®Star units are designed to be installed indoors.
The RFS ClearFill®Star equipment operates over CAT5, CAT-5E or CAT6 cable of type
unshielded twisted pair (UTP), foiled twisted pair (FTP) or screened twisted pair (ScTP), with
shielded RJ-45 connectors; or Single-mode fiber (SMF) or multi-mode fiber (MMF) cable with
SC/APC fiber connectors throughout the fiber network, including fiber distribution panels.
All above named cables are widely used industry standards for Local Area Networks (LANs).
The regulations and guidelines for ClearFill®Star cable installation are identical to those
specified by the TIA/EIA 568-A standard and the TIA/EIA/IS-729 supplement for LANs.
RFS recommends plenum-rated Cat-5E/6 ScTP and fiber cable and connectors for
conformity to building codes and standards.
In order to meet FCC and CE Mark emissions requirements, the Cat-5E/6 cables must be
screened (ScTP) and it must be grounded using shielded RJ-45 connectors at both ends.
