Main Distribution Frame (MDF) Hardware

SYSTIMAX 110-type hardware is used for the Main Distribution Frame (MDF). 110-type
hardware is available in two basic types: the 110A and 110P. The 110A requires less wall space
than the 110P. The 110P includes horizontal and vertical cable troughs for managing
cross-connect cables. The S8700 Multi-Connect configuration is connected to the MDF with the
supplied B25A male to female 25-pair cables. The cables are provided in 10-foot (3 m) and
15-foot (4.5 m) lengths.
