CENTRAL PROCESSOR PACKAGE INSTALLATION

2.9 WIRING OF SURGE ARRESTOR BOXES

Typically, connectors P9 through P13 on the stan- dard I/O panel (connectors P4 through P6 on 14 card cabinets) will be assigned for RTL I/O connectors.

1.Connect the female end of an A600950A, 25 pair cable to the connector in the surge box. Dress the cable as shown in Fig. 2-10. above. Use a split rub- ber grommet (furnished) to protect the cable where it passes through the surge box bottom flange. Connect the male end of this cable to the appropri- ate mating connector in the CPP cabinet. Use a CHAMP LOC spring (furnished) to secure each end of the connector. Coil and tie any excess cable - do not shorten the cable length.

2.Use 25 pair inside telephone cable to connect the surge arrestor block to an RTL demarcation point punch block following the standard color code assignment shown in Table 2-3. Since not all

installations use all pairs present on the surge arres- tor block, some installers prefer to use individual 24 gauge solid twisted pair cross-connect wires rather than a 25 pair cable. Dress the cable or wire pairs using standard telephone wire management devices and techniques to effect a neat installation. The use of bridging clips on each demarcation block is strongly recommended to allow the console system to be isolated for troubleshooting. The connections are defined in reports titled RTL I/O PAIR ASSIGNMENTS. A separate report is provided for each I/O connector.

3.Be sure to replace the lids on all surge arrestor boxes. It is suggested that you place a copy of the pair assignments for each box inside the box for future reference.
