A wide variety of cabling is used around New Adelphi. Below are our cabling standards.

All coaxial cabling is 75 ohm with local terminations on BNC connectors. Patch panels are MUSA standard.

All fibre is single mode with LC connectors, housed in Neutrik OpticalCON DUO NO2-4FDW-1-A chassis connectors.

All twisted pair wiring is CAT6 cable with Neutrik NE8FDY-C6 local terminations.

All recording studio microphone cable is Van Damme Tour Grade with Neutrik NC3MXX and NC3FXX connectors.

For quick identification of length, the following colour scheme is used:
