Procedure 24
Connecting the system cables to the cross-connect terminal
Each card slot equipped with an SILC or UILC requires one NE-A25B 25-pair
connector cable. The cables connect to the connectors at the bottom of the
cabinet or at the rear of the MG 1000S. Each connector is assigned to its
corresponding card slot (for example, connector J8 is assigned to card slot 8).
1 Remove the connector retaining bar from the connector panel in the lower
part of each cabinet or MG 1000S. See Figures 17 and 18 on
and Figure 19 on
2 Connect an NE-A25B cable to each connector associated with a card slot
containing an SILC or UILC circuit card. See Figures 17 and 18 on
page 69, and Figure 19 on
3 Tag both ends of each cable with the cabinet or MG 1000S and connector
numbers.
4 Route cables down through the opening at the bottom of the cabinet or
MG 1000S.
5 Plug in the cables to the connector.
6 Replace the retaining bar after you have connected all cables to the
cabinet or MG 1000S.
7 Terminate the 25-pair cables at the cross-connect terminal.
8 Label the cross-connect terminal for each connector.

Cross-connecting DSLs
Each SILC provides eight four-wire, full-duplex ports. These ports connect to
the trunk wiring facilities (typically cabling or wiring from outside the
building) to form DSLs. Since the DSLs are polarity-sensitive, maintain
signal polarity along each loop as shown in Figure 27 on
Each UILC provides eight two-wire full-duplex ports. These ports connect to
twisted pair trunk wiring facilities to form DSLs, as shown in Figure 28 on
