Appendix D: Setting up the Network Cabling at Your Site
The network cabling at your site (from the wiring closet to the wall
or cubicle opening) may already be installed. If it is not, install the
cabling following these general guidelines.
CAUTION: It is recommended that a professional cable installer
perform these procedures. Be sure to adhere to local safety and
regulatory codes during the cable installation.
1. Connect one end of an Ethernet cable to your netw ork. Usually,
this connection is done in the Network wiring closet, via the patch
panel.
2. Terminate the other end of the cable at the location where the
NJ90 is being installed using a female RJ-45 connector. Refer to
the connector manufacturer’s instructions for terminating the
cable. Be sure to test the connector and verify it is working.
To ensure proper horizontal cabling functionality, adhere to the fol-
lowing network cabling standards during installation:
• ANSI/TIA/EIA-568
