Connection to the four ports of the Hotwire 8774 TDM SDSL Termination Unit is
through the 50-pin interface connector on its faceplate. Refer to Connector Pin
Assignments in the User's Guide.
Procedure
To connect the Hotwire 8774 TDM SDSL Termination Unit to your DTE:
1. Connect the 50-position connector of the cable to the connector on the
faceplate of the unit. Align one end of the cable connector with the card
connector, then push on the cable connector until it seats.
2. Feed the cable through the Cable Guide if it is installed. When all cables are
installed, anchor them with cable ties to the rack, DSLAM, or Cable Guide.
3. Connect the four terminating connectors to your DTE or DTEs.
You can connect the Hotwire DSLAM chassis containing the Hotwire 8774 TDM
SDSL Termination Unit to an MDF or other demarcation point. Do not connect it
to a POTS splitter.
Procedure
To connect the Hotwire DSLAM chassis containing the unit to an MDF:
1. Plug the Telco 50-pin cable into the appropriate LINE port on the chassis:
2. Replace the longer Telco cable captive screw with a shorter connector
captive screw, which is provided with the Hotwire DSLAM chassis.
3. Insert a cable tie (provided with Hotwire DSLAM chassis) through the tie
mount to hold the Telco 50-pin connector in place. If more than one Telco
cable is being connected, span the two or three connectors.
4. Make sure the other end is connected to the appropriate MDF or demarcation
point.
Refer to Connector Pin Assignments in the User's Guide for pinouts.
NOTE:
If connecting the Telco 25-pair, 50-pin cable to an MDF, a converter may be
necessary for terminating the other end of the cable on a punchdown block
before cross-connecting to an MDF.
