BICSI Installer 1 Questions with Correct Answersabandoned cable Correct Answer-the installed cables and cabling
(connectorized cables) that are not terminated at both ends at a connector
or other equipment and not identified with a tag for future use.
above finished floor (AFF) Correct Answer-the standard mounting
height or vertical distance for a fixture, ceiling, device, or any other
object measured from the finished floor surface to the center line of the
object as the measurement point.
absorption Correct Answer-a phenomenon causing attenuation of wave
signals (electromagnetic, optical, acoustic) passing through a medium. It
occurs when gaseous molecules or suspended water particles in the
atmosphere absorb the signal energy and convert it into heat due to
molecular resonance.
A-C-rated fire-retardant plywood Correct Answer-The plywood treated
with a fire-retardant that has a smooth-finished A grade side that is
exposed for the purpose of mounting equipment and a rough-finished C
grade side.
acceptance plan Correct Answer-a facilitating agreement between parties
(contractor and client or client representative) that defines satisfactory
completion of a project task or complete project. It may include items on
which the client's acceptance is dependent (delivery of as-built drawings,
test certification).
,acceptance test Correct Answer-a test or set of tests performed to
demonstrate satisfactory completion of a predetermined task or group of
tasks on which acceptance is dependent.
Access Control System (ACS) Correct Answer-An interconnected set of
controllers managing the entrance and exit of people through secure
areas.
Access Floor Correct Answer-A system consisting of completely
removable and interchangeable floor panels that are supported on
adjustable pedestals or stringers (or both) to allow entry to the area
beneath. Also called a raised floor.
Access provider (AP) Correct Answer-A company that provides
telecommunications signals by a circuit path or other means between a
service provider (SP) and the premises of the client or user. An AP can
also be the SP.
Acrylate Correct Answer-A coating applied during the optical fiber
cable manufacturing process to provide physical and environmental
protection for the optical fiber cable.
Active circuit Correct Answer-Any circuit connected to an energized
system.
,Active equipment Correct Answer-The energized equipment used for
receiving or transmitting analog or digital signals (switches, hubs,
routers, private branch exchanges)
Adapter Correct Answer-A device that enables different sizes or types of
plugs to mate with one another or to fit into a telecommunications
outlet/connector; the rearrangement of leads; large optical fiber cables
with numerous wires to fan out into smaller groups of wires;
interconnection between optical fiber cables; and limited voltage or
polarity or direct current (dc) rectification conversion.
Administration Correct Answer-The methodology defining the
documentation requirements of a cabling system and its containment, the
labeling of functional elements, and the process by which moves,
additions, and changes (MAC's) are recorded. (ISO)
Aerial Entrance Correct Answer-An entrance facility where the
telecommunications cables providing service to a building are placed
overhead and the entry point is located above the ground level
Alien crosstalk Correct Answer-The unwanted coupling of signals into a
balanced twisted-pair in a given copper cable from one or more balanced
twisted-pairs external to the given cable.
All-threaded-rod (ATR) Correct Answer-The straight section of round
rod stock that has threads installed over its entire length.
, Alternating current (ac) Correct Answer-A current flow that alternates
periodically (usually sinusoidal) in magnitude and direction.
American wire guage (AWG) Correct Answer-A system used to specify
wire size. The greater the wire diameter, the smaller the AWG value.
ampere (A) Correct Answer-A unit of measure of the rate of electron
flow or current in an electrical conductor. In Ohm's Law, one A is equal
to the current produced by one volt (V) flowing through a resistance of
one ohm.
Amplifier Correct Answer-a device that increases the voltage, current, or
power of a signal. The maximum absolute value reached by a voltage or
current waveform.
Analog signal Correct Answer-A signal in the form of a wave that uses
continuous variations of a physical characteristic over time (voltage
amplitude, frequency) to transmit information.
Anchor Correct Answer-A device inserted into a structural element or
ground and provides a point of attachment for restraining or securing
objects (racks, poles)
Angled Physical Contact (APC) Correct Answer-An optical fiber
connector that is polished to an angle of 8-10 degrees to reduce the back-
reflection of the signal.
