an identically labeled terminal block row at the satellite closet. See Figure29: 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.
