Cable placement needs to meet the required layout requirements in order to prevent inter signal interference.
Installation Requirement
When deploy cables, try to avoid sharp object or wall burr, if impossible, and then use a liner
protective cable.
When deploy cables, try to avoid heat source, or add insulation material between the heat source.
Binding Requirements
Similar cables should be tied up together.
The tied up cables should be closed to each other, flat, tidy and without skin damage.
When making the cable clasps, it should all face to the same direction. The cable in the same
position should be in the same level.
After finishing installing the cables, a label must be pasted at both cable ends, in the middle or cable
bending part.
Different types of cables are distributed separately. And intertwining or cross deployment is
forbidden.
