Premise wiring, simply refers to the network cabling system which includes cable wiring, cabling connectors and accessories, that is widely used in business, government, academic and in some cases domestic applications. It may extends from the point-of-entry to user work areas. Premises networks are wired worldwide, across every industry, in both small and large scale applications. Any type or number of topologies may be used -- star, bus, ring, etc.

The solid copper wires are punched down into open-ended slots that slice through the wiring insultation and hold the wire in position and make the electrical contact. This selection also includes split M and split B 66 block types. Aim at durable wiring block options, including 110 block, today. A high density 110 termination field for voice and data applications can be created by mounting110 blockson wall or backboards.

A 110 block, used to connect sets of wires in a structured cabling system, is a type of punch block. The "110" designation is also used to describe a type of insulation-displacement connector used to terminate twisted pair cables which use a similar punch-down tool as the older 66 block.

Structure

The 110 Wiring Block is designed to provide everything needed to terminate twisted pair cables with conductors sizes from 26 AWG to 22 AWG (0.64mm to 0.40mm). The 110 blocks consist of 25 pair groups and come in configurations to accommodate 100 and 300 pairs. The 110 blocks are wall-mountable with legs that permit cables to be routed behind them and are molded in fire-resistant plastic which meets applicable safety standards.

History

Early residential telephone systems used simple screw terminals to join cables to sockets in a tree topology. Since about 2000, these screw-terminal blocks have been slowly replaced by 110 blocks and sockets. Modern homes usually have phone service entering the house to a single 110 block, whence it is distributed by on-premises wiring to outlet boxes throughout the home in series or star topology. At the outlet box, cables are punched down to standard RJ-11 sockets, which fit in special faceplates. In commercial settings, this style of "home run wiring" was already in use on 66 blocks in telecom closets and switchrooms. The 110 block has been slowly replacing the 66 block, especially for data communications usage.

Advantages

Block 110allows a much higher density of terminations in a given space than older style termination blocks (66 style or wire wrap). Some 110 blocks meet specifications for higher bandwidth data protocols such as Category 5 and higher.

The 110 block is often used at both ends of Category 5 cable runs through buildings. In switch rooms, 110 blocks are often built into the back of patch panels to terminate cable runs. At the other end, 110 connections may be used with keystone modules that are attached wall plates. 110 blocks are preferred over 66 blocks in high-speed networks because they introduce less crosstalk and many are certified for use in Category 5 and Category 6 wiring systems, even Category 6a.
