Q

A typical electronic access control (EAC) cable consists of four ___ that are used for the door strike, card reader, door contact, and request for exit.

a. Twisted pairs surrounded by an overall shield
b. Strands of multimode optical fiber
c. Unshielded twisted pairs
d. Individually shielded pairs

d. Individually shielded pairs

p 17-10

EAC systems may be part of a converged network and utilize the structured cabling system for connectivity and power. An analog-type EAC cable consists of four individually shielded pairs.

The four individual wire pairs may be supplied individually or in a group. Colored foil shields or jacket colors may be used to designate the intended purpose of each of the wire pairs within the cables.
