SaskTel servicing guidelines
for
existing Multi-Dwelling
Units
10. The unit communication wire wall box installed is to be a min. 200 x 200 mm (8 inch x 8
inch, similar to RB8 box) deep outlet box. Suites with an abnormal number of outlets
may require a larger box.
The location of the unit box and media panel is at switch level height in a heated environment
where the ambient air temperature will NOT fall below 0º (Zero degrees Celsius) such as in
the utility closet. This box must be readily accessible. When a unit box is placed in lieu of a
Media Panel then an external non-switch 120VAC electrical outlet is required to be within 45cm
(18 inches) of the box.
11. The Multimedia Panel Box. Where the ONT/media panel is placed, is to be in a heated
environment where there is no risk of the ambient air temperature falling below 0°
(zero) Celsius. A garage is NOT a suitable location.
The preferred location is in HVAC room, utility closet, or laundry room etc. Builder/Owner
will provide One (1) duplex 15A non-switched power receptacle dedicated to networking
equipment at this location. If a unit wiring drop box is placed as well as a Media panel
these should be joined by running a 25 mm [1 inch] EMT or ENT (per building codes).
12. Developer/Owner to install communications wiring in wall cavity, either in conduit or
through the studs if no conduit installed.
a. Buildings Designated as Fibre Fed, from the electrical room to the suite install an
inside fibre drop cable of a type that best matches the layout and design of the property.
If this route consists of either a single shared conduit with multiple drop-offs into
consecutive units, or no conduit but fibre drop between the studs, then the fibre
for all the suites must be placed simultaneously by the owner/developer during
building construction.
Contact SaskTel BICs to find-out if the building is designated as fibre only.
13. Suites Runs: all suite runs from Medial Panel to the outlet jack in the suite must be
CAT5e four pairs twisted 24AWG solid copper wires.
14. If the drops “home” on Auxiliary MTR, then there are (2) options determine the conduit
capacity between the Auxiliary MTR and Main MTR.
If conduit capacity allows for the large number of single drops, then continue the drops
through to the MTR – this is the preferred arrangement. If conduit capacity does not allows for
the large number of single drops, then do a transition splice and route a short piece of riser
cable from the Auxiliary MTR to MTR.
**Contact SaskTel to determine the final method as other options may still be available**
The use, number and location of iFDTs, if ever required, will be determined by SaskTel. This is
because iFDTs come in set number counts and, to reduce wastage, may be installed on
alternating floors to properly fill the devices. The builder should then be prepared to run the floor
fibre drops up or down one floor to meet the iFDT location, and this should be discussed with
SaskTel prior to installation of the indoor fibre drops.
