(Addendum No. 1 to TIA/EIA-568-B.1)
AUGUST 2001
TIA/EIA Engineering Standards and Publications are designed to serve the public interest
through eliminating misunderstandings between manufacturers and purchasers, facilitating
interchangeability and improvement of products, and assisting the purchaser in selecting and
obtaining with minimum delay the proper product for his particular need. Existence of such
Standards and Publications shall not in any respect preclude any member or nonmember of
TIA/EIA from manufacturing or selling products not conforming to such Standards and
Publications, nor shall the existence of such Standards and Publications preclude their voluntary
use by those other than TIA/EIA members, whether the standard is to be used either domestically
or internationally.
Standards and Publications are adopted by TIA/EIA in accordance with the American National
Standards Institute (ANSI) patent policy. By such action, TIA/EIA does not assume any liability
to any patent owner, nor does it assume any obligation whatever to parties adopting the Standard
or Publication.
This Standard does not purport to address all safety problems associated with its use or all
applicable regulatory requirements. It is the responsibility of the user of this Standard to
establish appropriate safety and health practices and to determine the applicability of regulatory
limitations before its use.
(From Standards Proposal Nos.3-4425-AD1, formulated under the cognizance of the TIA TR-42
Committee on User Premises Telecommunications Infrastructure.)

1 1 INTRODUCTION
2 At the request of the TR-42.1 Subcommittee on Commercial Building Cabling, the minimum bend radius
3 of patch cables within ANSI/TIA/EIA-568-B.1, subclause 10.2.1.3 has been under further study by the
4 TR-42.7 Patch Cable Task Group. The purpose of this addendum, as a result of their research, is to
5 replace sub-clause 10.2.1.3, Minimum patch cable bend radius, of ANSI/TIA/EIA-568-B.1.
6 2 SCOPE
7 This addendum applies to minimum 4-pair unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) and 4-pair screened
8 twisted-pair (ScTP) patch cable bend radius.
9 3 SUBCLAUSE ADDENDUM
10 10.2.1.3 Minimum patch cable bend radius
11 The minimum inside bend radius, under no load conditions, for 4-pair UTP patch cable shall be 6 mm
12 (0.25 in). The minimum inside bend radius, under no load conditions, for 4-pair ScTP patch cable shall
13 be 50 mm (2.0 in).
