4 If the cable is to be a custom-made DS3, attach the BNC connectors to
each end of an appropriate length of coax cable.
5 Plug the cable connector into the receptacle labelled IN at the rear of the
EdgeLink.
6 Route the cable to the FP in the switch.
7 Plug the cable into the faceplate at a female BNC connector labelled Tx.
8 Label the cable at each end point to identify its other end and direction of
signaling.
9 Manage any cable slack so that it is away from the switch.
10 Fasten the cable tie-wraps snugly along the path between the EdgeLink
and the switch.
11 Repeat step 1 to step 10 for the second DS3 cable at the connectors
labelled OUT and Rx.
12 When both DS3 interface cables are connected, the software of the
EdgeLink establishes the links with the switch or Preside Multiservice
Data Manager (or both). Coordinate with the software operator of the
EdgeLink to activate its software. Ensure that the configuring is done and
there is connectivity.
