MDF connections to stations and the public switched telephone network

Installing and administering the patch cord/jumper

Before starting the patch cord installation, obtain a copy of the Port Assignment Record forms from the customer or marketing representative. See Figure 25: Port Assignment Record Form on page 53.

The white label identifying the terminal block row associated with circuits 17 to 24 connects to an identically labeled terminal block row at the satellite closet. See Figure 29: Example 3-pair labeling to information outlet on page 63. This is always the case for either 1-point or 2-point administration.

The satellite symbol must be installed at all connection points between the blue field and the information outlet. It must also be installed at the information outlet itself.

Figure 30: Example 4-pair labeling to information outlet on page 64 shows an example labeling scheme for 4-pair circuits from the equipment room to the information outlets. The labeling scheme for 3-pair circuits from the MDF to a satellite location.
