Connect the Media Gateway to
the MDF
Once the Main Distribution Frame (MDF) is installed and wired, you must connect the media
gateways to the MDF.
Run excess cables on an upper cable ladder (if the MDF connectors are on top) or route them
through a cable slack manager that is placed next to the MDF. For more information see

Equipment Room Cabling Labels
The purple port label shown in
‘‘Equipment Room Cabling Labels’’ on page 119
both ends of the 25-pair cables connecting to the trunk/auxiliary field and/or distribution field.
The top blue/yellow building and floor labels are for cables connecting from the equipment
room to a site/satellite location on another floor or in another building. The yellow label is for
auxiliary circuits connecting to the trunk/auxiliary field. The bottom blue/yellow label is for
25-pair cables connecting to site/satellite closets.
‘‘Equipment Room Cabling Labels’’ on page 119
details the label name and range of each label.
‘‘Cable/Connector/Building Label Ordering Information’’ on page 120
provides label ordering
information.
‘‘Self-Stick Label on 25-Pair Cable Connector’’ on page 120
shows the proper way to install a
label on a 25-pair cable connector. Install the label near the rear of the connector so it is not
obscured by the media gateway connector retainers. It can also be installed on the skin of the
cable near the connector.
