Connecting Extensions

A fully expanded DSX-40 can connect up to 26 extensions. The basic Main Equipment Cabinet provides 8
digital station ports and 2 analog station ports built in. The configuration of the remaining 16 station ports
depends on the combination of 8-Port Digital Station and 8-Port Analog Station Cards installed. See Install-
ing Expansion Cards (page 25) for more.
To connect extensions:
1. Using Figure 9: Punch Down for Extensions (page 30) as a guide, plug the installation cable plugs into
the appropriate jacks on the Main Equipment Cabinet.
Install a modular jack for each extension within 6 feet of the telephone's location.
2.
For each extension, run one-pair 24 AWG station cable from the station block to the modular jack.
3.
- To make adds, moves, and changes easier, be sure to leave a service loop in your station cable.
4. Terminate the station cable
5. Install bridging clips as required.
