Wall Space Requirements
Single-Section Cross-Connect Field
As shown in Figures 2-22 and 2-23, the cross-connect field and trunk/auxiliary field are
mounted on a common wall. A maximum of 20 connector modules, plus a Z9A Support to
complete the field, can be mounted continuously on the wall. Each connector module and the
Z9A Support are approximately 5 inches (12.7 cm) wide.
If CAPs are used for the trunk/auxiliary field, each column of CAPs mounted to the left or
right of the cross-connect field requires approximately 26 inches (66.0 cm) of horizontal wall
space. Approximately 8 inches (20.3 inches) of horizontal wall space is required for each
column of sneak fuse panels. Wall space must also be provided for emergency transfer units
when they are mounted outside the CAPs. If 110-type or 66-type hardware is used as the
trunk/auxiliary field, refer to Section 3 or 4 of this manual.
Multi-Section Cross-Connect Field
As shown in Figure 2-25, the multi-section cross-connect field allows you to tailor your
cross-connect field to fit in an equipment room with limited horizontal wall space on one
continuous wall (no corners) for the size system being installed. The size of each cross-
