Industry standards are published guidelines derived from a voluntary consensus among manufacturers, consultants, and designers. The main objective of cabling standards is to allow diverse manufacturers to supply equipment and components that will interoperate in a standard building-cabling environment. Standards also provide a benchmark for various performance categories, as well as guidelines for planning, designing and installing a cabling system within a commercial building.
As an active participant and contributor to cabling standards organizations such as TIA and IEEE, Hubbell manufactures products that exceed all applicable standards. Compliance to industry standards is a long-term commitment by Hubbell Premise Wiring. Adherence to standards is a key requirement/component of Hubbell's MISSION CRITICAL® Warranty Application Assurance program.
