•
Connect the cable to the assigned connecting/terminal block.
•
Avoid placing copper cables where they may bend or strain fiber optic cables.
Control carrier outputs cable installation
In an MCC1 and SCC1 media gateway, a connector on the rear of the Expansion Control Carrier is
labeled AUX. A 25-pair cable connects the AUX connector to a 110-type terminal block in the yellow
field of the trunk/auxiliary field. The AUX connector outputs include the following:
•
Seven DC power (-48 VDC) sources for emergency transfer units.
•
Three DC power (-48 VDC) sources for remotely powering a total of 3 attendant consoles or
executive telephone adjuncts.
Trunk cables among network interface,
sneak fuse panel, and media gateway
The 1-pair of central office (CO) trunks are installed by the network provider in the green field. Up to 24
pairs may be terminated on each row of the 110-type terminal block. Tie trunks also appear in the green
field with up to eight 3-pair trunks terminated on each row of the 110-type terminal block.
WP-90929, List 1 and 3 concentrator cables can be used to connect the media gateway to the 110-type
terminal blocks in the purple field. The 1-pair patch cords/jumper wires are then run from the purple
terminal block rows to the green terminal block rows in order to establish the correct 3-pair modularity.
Installing cables between media gateway and
main distribution frame
1
Install D rings on the wall between the cable slack manager and the terminal/connecting blocks
mounted on the MDF.
2
Install a self-adhesive port label on the back of each connector on the connector cable. Position
the labels so the media gateway connector retainers do not cover them.
3
At the rear of the media gateway, connect one end of the connector cable to the assigned
connector.
4
Route the cable down the rear of the media gateway, through the cable slack manager, and to the
MDF.
5
At the MDF, connect the other end of the cable to the assigned terminal/ connecting block
connector.
6
Store the cable slack in the cable slack manager.
7
Repeat Steps 2 through 6 until all cables are installed.
