Installing Patch Panels; Cross-Connecting The Media Gateway To The Patch Panels - Avaya G650 Installing

Installing patch panels

Patch panels are arrays of RJ45 jacks and associated B25A cabling to accommodate 2-wire,
24-port DCP/analog port boards and 8-port analog trunk boards. They are mounted either
below or above the media gateway stack. They cannot be mounted in between media
gateways.
Note:
The patch panels do not have to be mounted in the same rack as the media

gateways. They can be mounted in phone closets as appropriate.
See Figure 44: Typical RMC patch panel installation
procedure.
To install patch panels:
1. Using the supplied mounting screws, mount the patch panels on the rack below media
gateway A or above the topmost media gateway.
2. Attach B25A cables to the patch panels and the circuit pack amphenol connectors.
Note:
Connect 24-port DCP/analog circuit packs to the 24 port patch panels.

first two banks on the 8 port patch panel. If an TN2185B ISDN-BRI S/T-TE
Interface (4-wire, 8 ports) circuit pack is present, connect it to the third bank on
the 8 port patch panel.

Cross-connecting the media gateway to the patch panels

Cross-connect the port circuit packs to the G650 Media Gateway patch panels (or other
standard 110A cross-connect equipment). See
