3.3 Routing the Input Ports Cables
The ports on the front panel of the Midspan are configured as "Pass
Through" ports for all 48 conductors of the RJ-45 connectors. Use
Category 5 jumpers cables with a diameter that is less than 0.25 inch in
making connections.
* Using an appropriate bench, connect all the cables to the Midspan as
follows:
1. Connect cables to the Data input ports as shown below:
2. Start connecting the cables in groups of six as shown above.
For proper wiring, each group should be tied using plastic
straps. The cables should be routed via the side path to the
Midspan’s front side. Every two groups should be tied together
to chasis ‘ears’ as shown above.
3. Repeat the above mentioned procedure for the rest of the
cables, thus 24 cables are routed via left/right side path.
*
Midspan cables connection may also be performed by firstly assembling the
midspan to the rack by the brackets. In such a case take all necessary
precautions to prevent the Midspan from falling down to the floor!
