INSTALLING THE SWITCH

Installing Additional Equipment

The VDSL switch should be installed close to the PBX, punch-down blocks, and patch panels, usually in the basement or wiring closet. You may also want to install a rack for distribution equipment (switches, routers etc.), and extra punch-down blocks or patch panels for flexibility and future applications or expansion.

An optional patch panel can be used to connect the circuits between the switch and the punch-down blocks. If a patch panel is not used, the switch connects directly to the PBX for the incoming phone lines and the punch-down block used for the VDSL lines running up to the end users. In this case, the punch-down blocks must have an RJ-21 connector.
