Connect one end of switch cable to appropriate carrier slot and dress down back of
cabinet.
Route the cable from the switch cabinet through the cable slack manager and store
slack.
Connect the 25-pair cable to the 66-type connecting block connector.
Repeat steps 1 through 4 until all cables are installed.
When 66-type connecting blocks are used, "D" rings should be installed to hold the
cables against the wall, so the cables can be routed up the wall to the connecting
blocks.
Installing Cables Between Cross-Connect Field and Auxiliary Cabinet
Auxiliary equipment that connects to the cross-connect field can be optionally mounted
inside the auxiliary cabinet. The equipment connects to an ED-1E1443-10 (Group 1)
intraconnection panel provided with the auxiliary cabinet. The intraconnection panel
consists of a 110-type 100-pair wiring block located inside the cabinet. The wiring block is
prewired to four 25-pair female connectors on a mounting plate that is attached to the
outside rear skin of the cabinet.
Auxiliary equipment is punched down on the 110-type wiring block. B25A cables connect the
female 25-pair connectors to the cross-connect field. A25D cables connect the female 25-pair
connectors to the switch cabinet. Details for installing the equipment and making the
connections to the cross-connect field are included under the heading AUXILIARY
EQUIPMENT INSTALLATION in this manual.
