• Indirect cabling via (main) distribution frame and any universal building cable instal-
lation (UBC) (see also Fig. 32 and Fig. 33).

Standard commercial cables are used to connect directly to the telephone network. De-
tails can be found in the Chapter "Network interfaces", page 117.

ply assigned. They can be split into individual RJ45 sockets using patch cables and the
fan-out-panel (see "Fan-out panel FOP", page 148).
