You have been assigned by Old Dominion University to rewire Constant Hall with category 6 cable, RJ 45 outlets, and patch panels. The floor plan of the building, which you can assume is to scale, is linked. Each office and classroom (these are the rooms that are numbered on the floor plan) will need two data outlets. That means that two cables will need to run to each room, which will be terminated on one end with an RJ 45 outlet and in a patch panel on the other end. Use a star or extended star topology for the wiring. Pick one "equipment room" near the center of the building that will house the core switches and router for the building as well as access cables from nearby classrooms and offices. You will also need "telecomm closets" if the building is so large that any access cable will be more than 90 meters long. All of these rooms will need patch panels for terminating your cable runs. Ensure that the cable run from each of your chosen rooms to the office or classroom that is furthest away is not further than the Cat 6a spec allows (90 meters). The building is 215 feet wide. The ceilings are 10 feet tall. Use a ruler to determine the scale of the diagram and use that scale to estimate the total amount of cable that you will need.
