You are placing Category 6 unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) in cable tray down a hallway past the elevator mechanical room. What action should you take to avoid effects of electromagnetic interference (EMI)?
To avoid the effects of electromagnetic interference (EMI) when placing Category 6 unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) cable near an elevator mechanical room, it is recommended to provide a minimum separation distance. The correct minimum separation distance is generally considered to be around 47 inches (1194 mm), which is intended to reduce exposure to EMI from electrical equipment in the mechanical room. This distance helps to ensure that the cabling is far enough away from potential sources of interference.
The correct answer is 48 inches - Pag287 Table 2.6
