Closets

Closets are intermediate points between the Main Distribution Field and the endpoint. They are
used to distribute wiring to multiple destinations via cross-connect equipment.
There are two different types of closet configurations. Satellite closets are usually distribution
points for multiple site closets. However, information outlets may be wired directly to a satellite
closet. Site closets are the last cross-connection point before the end user information outlet.
Satellite and site closets may be used to apply bulk station power to information outlets.

Satellite Locations

Satellite locations are closets that provide an administration point (using cross-connect
equipment) for station cables and where adjunct power may be applied. The station cable
circuits from the equipment room MDF are 3-pair. At the satellite location, 4-pair circuits run to
the information outlets. The hardware used is 110-type terminal blocks.
Satellite Locations Using 110-Type Hardware
Each terminal block has a 3-pair (white field) and a 4-pair (blue field) located on the same
terminal block.
The 110A-type terminal block that can be used is the 110AE1-75FT. It must be field-terminated
to both the white and blue fields.
