PATCHCORD

INSERT

(Circular

Bosses)

PASS-THRU

INSERT

(No Bosses)

NOTE:

 The blue VTAC Insert used for patchcord termination, 

versus the VTAC Pass-Thru Insert has raised circular bosses 
on one side. When using a VTAC patchcord with multiple 
inserts or multiple VTAC patchcords loaded side-by side in 
a SIM module, these bosses are intended to mate with the 
circular indentations on the opposite side of the insert to make 
grouping easier. 

1. 

The VTAC Pass-Thru Insert has both a front mating end (

Figure A

) and rear 

mating end (

Figure B

).  The front mating end is used to mate with the front 

mating end of additional VTAC Pass-Thru Inserts (

Figure D)

. The rear mating 

end mates with VTAC Right Angle Inserts or VTAC Vertical Headers.  

2. 

There are two ways to identify pin position 1. The first method is a keying 
feature that creates a large and a small side which only allows the insert to be 
installed one-way to ensure correct orientation (

Figure E

).  

3. 

Pin position 1 can also be determined by a small indentation located on one 
side of the insert ( 

Figure C

). Note that the insert is positioned with the three 

circular indentations on the bottom.  
 

NOTE:

 The VTAC Insert serves as both an ITA and receiver insert.
