Information Outlet Locations

The customer or marketing representative must provide floor plans showing the information
outlet locations and types (flush- or surface-mounted) required. The floor plans must also show
a complete overview of all conduit and cabling facilities in the building.

Site, Satellite, and Adapter Locations

Use the following information when determining site, satellite, or adapter locations.

One 258A/BR2580A adapter is required for each 25-pair station cable containing 4-pair station
circuits. One 356A adapter is required for each 25-pair station cable containing 3-pair station
circuits. Hardware requirements are the same as for the equipment room.

Sizing 4-Pair Station Cables

Use the scale of the floor plan to determine the approximate length of the station cables required
per the standard SYSTIMAX wiring concepts.

Sizing 25-Pair and Multiple 25-Pair Station Cables

Use the scale of the floor plan to determine the approximate length of each 25-pair station cable.
The cables must be selected and properly sized to make maximum use of the hardware at the
equipment room or satellite location.

Keep the number of locations to a minimum.
To minimize the station wiring distances, centrally locate the sites/satellites, or adapters
among the information outlets.
Site/satellite locations must be easily accessible and contain AC-powered receptacles.
