ANACOM has organised a Workshop entitled ''Standardization - Buildings' Cable Infrastructure Evolution'', to be held on 29 October 2008 in the Municipal Auditorium of Ruy de Carvalho in Carnaxide, Oeiras.
This initiative fulfils part of ANACOM's statutory remit - the promotion of technical standardisation in the communications sector and related fields. The objective is to launch a debate on the activity of standardisation and encourage the adoption of European and international standards in regulation, as stipulated in article 29 of the Law of Electronic Communications (Law no. 5/2004 of 10 February).
The delivery of electronic communications through cable infrastructure has a similar importance to the provision of other network services such as electricity, gas or water supply. As with these services, interruptions can have serious repercussions. Low levels of quality of service due to deficient planning, inappropriate use of components, poor installation, poor management or insufficient technical support threaten the effective functioning of the service.
Standardisation contributes to the definition and establishment of methodologies to be implemented during the various stages of network conception: the design, the verification of specifications and requirements of the cables, conduits and environments in the buildings (for example, to take into account issues of electromagnetic compatibility), as well as requirements in respect of quality of service; the installation, which must be in accordance with the requirements contained in the specifications; and the operation - managing the connectivity and maintenance of the transmission profile during the useful life of the cables.
The guest speakers, national and international experts in standardisation, will help bring the technical knowledge of participants up to date and widen the knowledge base of the economy and the harmonious integration of new technologies and the results of research in the concept and development process of next generation networks.
In the context of the above, this workshop is directed at a broad target audience: designers, installers, inspectors (auditors), maintenance managers and specialists in cable technologies; public network operators and operators of local services; final customers (residential and businesses); public entities with responsibilities in this area (including municipalities); and architects and builders.
