Connecting Termination Modules to Ethernet Cables
iControl junction boxes and control panels containing Ethernet devices are
equipped with T568-B Ethernet termination modules and 2-foot T568-B
patch cords. To connect the termination modules to the Ethernet cables
coming from the network junction box, you will need a cable jacket stripper,
a 110 punch-down tool, and a diagonal cutter.

See Figure 3-10.
1. Remove the surface mount box and termination module from the
junction box.
2. Remove the cover and bezel from the surface-mount adapter. Use a
small flat screwdriver to remove the old-style cover; squeeze the clips
on each side of the new-style cover to remove it.
3. Remove the cable entry knockout from the cover.
4. Strip back the cable jacket no less than 50 mm (2 in.). Do not strip the
wire insulation.
5. Keeping each pair twisted together, lay the wires one at a time into the
module slots and punch them down, using the B color code as shown in
the illustrations.
NOTE: A minimum of 6.4 mm (
1
/
4
in.) of wire must extend beyond the
module slot to ensure a good connection.
6. Clip off the ends of the wires close to the termination module so the
ends of the wires cannot contact each other.
7. Side-connect modules: Slide the termination module into the adapter,
then install the bezel onto the adapter.
Rear-connect modules: Snap the termination module into the bezel,
then install the bezel onto the adapter.
8. Secure the cable to the adapter with a cable tie.
9. Snap the adapter cover into place.
10. Locate the assembled surface mount box close enough to the fieldbus
device to make the patch cable connection. Secure the adapter to the
junction box with the included piece of two-sided adhesive tape.
