TipFor all CADDY ® CABLECAT supports, make sure cable sag betweenfixings is no more than 300 mm at midspan.(Actual sag will depend on the number of cables in each bundleand the weight of the cable.)To achieve this locate the supports every 1.2 to 1.5 m to staywithin the 300 mm sag criteria.A = 1,20 - 1,50 mB < 300 mmd. 1997 EITA/TIA 569-A Standard4.6.2 Design guidelines4.6.2.1 Planning - The design shall provide a suitablemeans and method for supporting cables from thetelecommunications closet to the work areas to be served.Cables shall not be laid directly on the ceiling tile or rails.4.6.2.2 Clearance - A minimum of 75 mm (3 in) clearvertical space shall be available above the ceiling tilesfor the horizontal cabling and pathway.4.6.5.2 A suspended ceiling support rod or wire may beused to mount appropriate cable fasteners loaded withmultiple cables up to the total weight for which thefastener is approved.
