3.4 Connecting External Test Equipment
The right rear of the Standard Patch Panel chassis includes a DB25 female port labeled “TEST EQUIP” that
facilitates a connection to external test equipment. This port interfaces with the test module. The following
diagram below illustrates how external test equipment connects to the Patch Panel chassis.
Figure 3-2. Connecting external test equipment to the Patch Panel chassis.
3.5 Connecting the Power Supply
The Standard Patch Panel chassis requires power to operate all module LEDs and the +12 volts outlet on the
test modules. To add power to the chassis:
1. Connect the power supply to the port labeled “POWER” on the right rear of the chassis.
2. Connect the power supply to the appropriate 110- or 220-VAC power source (see Figure 3-3).
NOTE
The power supply has a 6-ft. (1.8-m) cord.
