| 9.3.2 | Documenting cable runs

Whenever you install cable, it is important that you document your actions. You can do this by using a cut sheet as you install the cable. A cut sheet is a rough diagram that shows the locations of the cable runs. It also indicates the numbers of the classrooms, offices, or other rooms, to which the cables have been run. Later you can refer to this cut sheet to place corresponding numbers on all telecommunications outlets and at the patch panel in the wiring closet. You can use a page in your journal to document cable runs. By doing so, you will have an additional layer of documentation for any cable installation.
