After mounting the node interface (Chapter 4), pull the node interface out
to the switch-setting position before connecting the tap to the node
interface. This is the only way to be sure that the dropline will have
enough slack in the switch-setting position. (Remember the 3-inch
minimum bend radius.) Plug the right-angle plug of the dropline into the
jack labeled DATA HWY II PORT on the node interface. Then, plug the
other end of the dropline into the jack on the front of the tap (Figure 3.16).
