A. Rx on port 1 B. Tx on port 1 C. Rx on port 2 D. Tx on port 2
4. PoE Budgeting

A. 8 B. 11 C. 12 D. 13
5. Pathway Bend Radius—Multi-Fiber Loose Tube
For a 24-strand loose-tube OM4 cable (OD ≈ 12 mm), the minimum long-term bend radius is:
A. 48 mm B. 96 mm C. 120 mm D. 48 cm
6. Campus Backbone—OSP Fiber Slack
BICSI recommends slack loops at maintenance holes every:
A. 10 m B. 30 m C. 50 m D. 75 m
7. Rack-Unit Utilization
A 42U cabinet houses network gear (32RU), cable management (4RU), and blanking panels (2RU). Remaining RU = ______.
A. 4 B. 6 C. 8 D. 10
8. Grounding Electrode Conductor (GEC) Size
For a telco entrance with a 400 kcmil service conductor, minimum copper GEC per NEC 250 Table is:
A. 2 AWG B. 1 AWG C. 1/0 AWG D. 2/0 AWG
9. Bonding Busbar Location
The PBB (Primary Bonding Busbar) in a data center should be placed:
A. Closest to the main service disconnect
B. In the middle of the equipment row
C. Within 8 ft of the MGN (Main Grounding Network) mesh
D. Above the cold aisle to minimize cable length
10. OSP Trenching—Separation from High-Voltage
When trenching a new fiber duct alongside a 15 kV power line, BICSI and NESC recommend a horizontal separation of at least:
A. 0.3 m B. 0.9 m C. 1.5 m D. 3.0 m
Answer Key & Mini-Rationales
-
C – 2-in EMT at 40 % fill ≈ 1.67 in², enough for 16 × 0.078 in² cables.
-
B – Cold aisles ≥ rack depth (1,200 mm) for airflow & equipment egress.
-
C – Method B swaps pairs; Tx1→Rx2, Tx2→Rx1.
-
C – 600 W × 0.8 (headroom) = 480 W ÷ 45 W ≈ 10.6 → 10; however switch only has eight ports, so 8 is max. (See PoE budget nuance.)
-
B – Long-term bend radius = 10 × OD → 10 × 12 mm = 120 mm (check label).
-
C – 50 m slack-loop spacing per BICSI ITS-OSP.
-
A – 42 – (32 + 4 + 2) = 4RU left.
-
C – Table 250.66: 400 kcmil → 1/0 AWG GEC.
-
A – Locate PBB near main service disconnect to minimise GEC length.
-
B – 0.9 m (3 ft) horizontal separation per NESC Table 354-1.
