5. DSX-1 CROSS-CONNECT ROUTING PROCEDURE
5.01Follow the standard operating procedures for the
routing of cross-connects based on local practice. For
DSX-1 Bays and Modules, ADC recommends the use
of five conductor jumper wire consisting of two inde-
pendently twisted pairs (Signal Transmission) and a
binding wire (used for Tracer Lamp identification).
(Refer to Section 1 – Cross-Connect Routing Rule
Parameters).
5.02Follow the steps as defined in your local practice
or those indicated below to run a DSX-1 Cross-Con-
nect Jumper.
1.Once the equipment assignments have been de-
termined, strip the open end of the jumper wire
as it comes off the spool.
Caution: After properly stripping jumper wires,
inspect area to ensure the removed insulation
and wire clippings did not fall or land in the
confines of the DSX bay line up.
2.At the originating end of the cross-connect, ter-
minate the jumper wires to the IN and OUT – TN
(tip normal) and RN (ring normal) wire wrap
terminals respectively. Terminate the green
jumper wire to the TL (tracer lamp) wire wrap
terminal. Inspect the wire wrap connections (see
Figure 3).
