Using the D-Impact Tool to Seat the Conductors

Wiring

3If necessary, repeat Steps 1 and 2 for a second column.

4Run the 25-pair amphenol cable on the RJ21X interface to the termination blocks.

If more length is needed, use an A25D male-connector, single-ended, 25-pair, nonplenum cable.

5Mount the D-rings to properly dress the wires, as needed.

6Cutoff the amphenol connector nearest to the cross-connect field and strip the wires for each of the 25 pairs.

7Punch down the 25-pair wires to the termination block.

aRoute the wires through the fanning slots on the termination block.

bInsert the conductors into the designated 110 connecting blocks already on the termination block.

cUse the D-impact tool to seat the conductors. See Figure 4–4.

dRemove any insulation fragments with a spudger.
