10/100BASE-T/TX Ethernet Cable Installation
Description
This section describes how to connect the 10/100BASE-T/TX cables to
the Metropolis
®
DMXtend shelf and route the cables out of the bay and
to the 10/100BASE-T/TX terminating equipment. Perform this
procedure if 10/100BASE-T/TX cables are required.
This section describes how to route the 10/100BASE-T/TX cables from
the interconnecting equipment (for example, a 110/RJ45
®
punch down
block) to the Metropolis
®
DMXtend backplane.
............................................................................................................................................................................
Procedure
Step 1
Refer to the engineering job specification.Obtain the 10/100BASE-T/
TX Ethernet cables per Table 1-12, 10/100BASE-T/TX Ethernet Cable
Assemblies and note the function group where each cable will be used.
Label the cables, indicating bay, shelf and function group (D or G) at
each end.
............................................................................................................................................................................
Step 2
Connect the function group cables at the Metropolis
®
DMXtend end,
carefully matching the correct connector with the appropriate
backplane connectors as shown in Figure 1-15, 10/100BASE-T/TX
Cable Connections (page 1-47).
Important!
Backplane connectors are associated with function
Groups as follows:
•
J1D, J3D
➠
Function Group D
•
J7G, J9G
➠
Function Group G
