Connecting a Data Horizontal Link to a Mainframe Asset

Step 1 From the Data Horizontal link, go to the Backbone Connection group box.

Step 2 Click the ellipsis button next to the Mainframe PU field.

Step 3 The Attach Asset window appears with Mainframe Assets listed. To find the correct asset easily, you can sort any column by clicking in the column heading. Select the mainframe to connect to. Click Connect.

Step 4 Enter all appropriate LU's. Click Save.

Connecting a Voice Horizontal Link to a Backbone Asset

Step 1 In the Backbone Connection group box, click the ellipsis button next to the Asset ID field.

Step 2 The Attach Asset window appears, with the voice backbone assets listed. To find the correct asset easily, you can sort any column by clicking in the column heading. Select the asset the voice horizontal link will connect to. Click Connect.

Step 3 Enter the PBX/Switch Port and the Extension in those fields. Click Save.

Connecting a Horizontal Link to Termination Hardware

This is where the horizontal link would be punched down to termination hardware in the physical infrastructure. In the HL Hardware Sequence tab, three radio buttons are available:

•No Consolidation Point - Most Horizontal Links are made with No Consolidation Point. This is the case with a simple data connection from a faceplate in a workspace to termination hardware (a Patch Panel or Wiring Block) in a Telecommunication Space.

•Consolidation Point - A Consolidation Point is rarely used. When it is, it is used to bring a high pair count cable from Termination Hardware in the Closet (Patch Panel or Wiring Block) to a central location in the ceiling (column, office furniture, under the floor) terminated in Termination Hardware.

•Cross Connect w/CP - A Consolidation Point with Cross-Connect uses two pieces of termination hardware to connect the large pair cable from the Closet to a small pair cable at the Faceplate with the cross-connect in-between.

Identifying Horizontal Link Pathways Used

Establish Pathways first using the Pathways tab. See “Adding a Pathway” on page 4-26and then do the following:

Step 1 On the Horizontal Link, click the Pathways Used tab. Step 2 Click the Add button in the Detail area.

Step 3 The Select Location window appears. Select the Pathway the Horizontal Link will use.

Step 4 Click Accept. Pathway information populates the form. Step 5 Click Save.
