1. INTRODUCTION
This instruction sheet provides the termination procedure for the modular jacks given in Figure 1. To obtain information on products, contact your local CommScope® account representative, PartnerPROTM Network Partner or visit our website at www.commscope.com.
NOTE Dimensions in this instruction sheet are in metric units [with U.S. customary units in brackets]. Figures are not drawn to scale.
Reasons for reissue of this instruction sheet are provided in Section 7, REVISION SUMMARY.
2. DESCRIPTION
Each modular jack accepts 4-pair, twisted-pair cable with solid conductor sizes 24 through 22 AWG or stranded conductor sizes 26 through 24 AWG with a maximum conductor insulation diameter of 1.45 mm [.057 in.]. The modular jack features a universal wiring label used to aid in proper wire color coding and a wiring block that terminates the wire. See Figure 1. Space Limiting strain reliefs are available separately.
3. TERMINATION
1. Slide strain relief over cable jacket. Refer to Figure 2. 2. Strip only as much of the cable jacket as necessary to perform the termination.
NOTE Generally, a strip length of 35 mm [1.378 in.] when using SL series modular jack tool kit 1725150-6 for termination will suffice.
