SMF costs just 11 cents per linea l foot so would total only $346.50. Finally, the CAT6a cable cost, at 33 cents per linea l foot, would total $1,039.50. Compare CA T6a to fiber optic cabling to serve 1,050 Gigabit ports, which would weigh just 10 pounds (6 tons less), in a bundle no larger than one inch in diameter. That bundle of 1,050 cables would be almost two feet in diameter. The 1,050 300-foot lengths of CAT6a access cabling would weigh 12,285 pounds. Assume that each one of those 1,050 Gigabit ports requires access drop cabling connectivity that is 300 feet long. Using SMF, that same number of Gigabit ports can be served by just nine fiber optic cable s. For the cabling, 1,050 Gigabit ports would require 1,050 copper cables. If we calculate the TIA-1179 Gigabit port requirement for a healthcare facility with 100 rooms (e.g., 45 rooms have 6 ports 25 rooms have 12 ports 30 rooms have 16 ports) the facility would require a total of 1,050 Gigabit ports. TIA-1179 calls for 45% of rooms to have 2 to 6 Gigabit ports, 25% to have 6 to 12 ports and 30% of rooms to have 14 or m ore ports. One SMF can serve 128 Gigabit Ethernet endpoints where 128 separate copper cables would otherwise be required.
