2. If necessary to attach the cable connector firmly in place, replace the longer Telco
cable captive screw with a shorter one. Fasten the connector.
3. Insert a cable tie (provided with Hotwire DSLAM) through the tie mount to hold the
50-position Telco connector in place.
4. Make sure the other end is connected to the appropriate MDF or demarcation
point.
NOTE:
If connecting the Telco 25-pair, 50-position cable to an MDF, a converter may be
necessary for terminating the other end of the cable on a punchdown block before
cross-connecting to an MDF.
Ferrite Choke (Installation in Hotwire 8820 GranDSLAM Only)
CAUTION:
All ferrite chokes that are supplied must be installed following these
instructions to ensure compliance with FCC Part 15, VCCI, and CISPR22
rules.

Procedure
A ferrite choke is included with all Hotwire 8775 and 8785 TDM SDSL Termination
Units. The ferrite choke is only required if you install the termination unit in a Hotwire
8820 GranDSLAM; otherwise, it can be discarded.
To install the ferrite choke onto the 50-pin DSL cable:
1. Open the ferrite choke and place it around the cable as close to the Hotwire 8820
GranDSLAM as possible.
2. Close the two halves around the cable and snap the choke shut, pressing down on
the plastic latch to secure it.
3. Add a tie wrap if necessary to prevent the ferrite choke from slipping down the
cable.
