In the originating DSX lineup make the connections as follows:
1. Connect the TL (green wire) from the DSX circuit to the TL on the cross-aisle tie circuit.
2. Connect the OUT (blue wire and blue-white wire) from the DSX circuit to the IN on the
cross-aisle tie circuit.
3. Connect the IN (orange and orange-white wire) from the DSX circuit to the OUT on the
cross-aisle tie circuit.
In the terminating DSX lineup make the connections as follows:
1. Connect the TL (green wire) from the cross-aisle tie circuit to the TL on the DSX circuit.
2. Connect the OUT (orange and orange-white wire) from the cross-aisle tie circuit to the
IN on the DSX circuit.
3. Connect the IN (blue wire and blue-white wire) from the cross-aisle tie circuit to the
OUT on the DSX circuit.
Remove any discontinued jumpers by disconnecting each end and cutting off the bare ends.
Remove each end of the jumper from the vertical wireways, and carefully remove the jumper
from the horizontal wireway by pulling at either end. This method of removal allows the
jumper to be removed without snagging or placing undo strain on the remaining jumpers.
Figure 8 shows the recommended method of routing cross-connect wiring. Following the rules
listed below the figure will assure minimal wire congestion, optimal traceability, ease of
installation, and maintenance.
Whenever a cross-connect changes direction, it should do so at a point where a ring, tray, or
fanning strip is placed. This will allow the cross-connect to be dressed neatly with no strain
and without interfering with any other portion of the bays. All cross-connect jumpers should
use the horizontal wireways between bays, and the vertical wireways within the bays.
