Mounting the IntelliJack
9
Before connecting the IntelliJack to the network, verify that the
existing network cabling meets the ANSI/TIA/EIA-568 standard
and that the port in the wiring closet is connected to an active
Ethernet MDI-X port.
1 Thread both IntelliJack LAN cables through the opening in
the mounting plate.
2 Connect the wiring as illustrated in the previous diagram.
The IntelliJack has two Category 5 cables each terminated
with a male RJ-45 connector.
■
The white cable connects the LAN to the four personal
area network (PAN) ports located on the bottom of the
IntelliJack.
■
The black cable connects the LAN to the single pass-
through port located on the front of the IntelliJack.
3 Choose one pair of the provided screws that best fits your
outlet box.
4 Tighten the screws while holding the IntelliJack in place.
NOTE: The IntelliJack is designed to be mounted
using the provided mounting plate or many after-
market faceplates. However, some after-market
faceplates stand out from the wall and do not
provide a secure mounting surface for the IntelliJack.
In such cases it is recommended to place the 3Com
spacer between the IntelliJack and the after-market
face plate. For more information on the different
mounting plates and spacers, see Appendix B.
