Installing ISDN BRI hardware for line applications

Figure 6 "Connect the system to the MDF" (page 26)

shows the cable

connection between the system and the MDF.

Determine the number of NE-A25B cables needed to connect one
module to the MDF.

Label each end of the cable specifying the module number, the
connector name (A, B, C), and the card type (SILC or UILC).

Plug one end of a cable into the appropriate connector on the I/O
panel at the rear of the module. Plug the other end of the cable into
the corresponding connector on the MDF.

Properly identify cables on the MDF. For example, plug the cable into
connector A on the I/O panel and into the connector labeled A on the
MDF, if an SILC or UILC is installed in slot 0 of an IPE module.

Repeat steps 2 through 4 for all cables in that module.

Repeat steps 1 through 5 for all modules containing SILCs and/or
UILCs.

Lay all the cables neatly and fasten them with cable ties.

Label the MDF, as necessary, using

(page 27)

through
