Hardware Installation
The procedures, provided in this guide, for installing hardware are written so that one system technician can do the installation. Procedures are provided for installing the following:
● Cross-connect field
●
●
Labels for cross-connect field
●
Installing the Cross-Connect Field
The preferred cross-connect field location is directly behind the switch cabinet.
Wall Mounting 110A-Type Terminal Blocks
The 110A-type hardware can be stacked in almost any arrangement at
any height or location on the wall. One arrangement is shown in Figure
3-10. The distance between the mounting screw holes on the terminal
blocks is 10-13/16 inches. If a vertical patch cord trough is to used, the distance between the mounting screw holes is 5-5/16 inches.
Wall Mounting 110P-Type Terminal Blocks
The first terminal block of the trunk/auxiliary field is aligned with the left
side of the switch cabinet (Figures 3-11 or 3-12). This arrangement
allows for growth on the right side of the cross-connect field.
To install the cross-connect field, proceed as follows:
1. If 300-pair terminal blocks are to be installed, draw a level horizontal
line on the wall 47-1/2 inches above the floor (Figure 3-14). If
900-pair terminal blocks are to be mounted, draw a level horizontal
line on the wall 23 inches above the floor (Figure 3-15).

Frame Mounting 110P-Type Terminal Blocks
The 900-pair 110P-type terminal blocks and the associated patch cord troughs can also be mounted on a free-standing, floor-mounted 1110A2
apparatus mounting frame (Figure 3-16). Each 1110A2 apparatus
mounting frame provides the space to mount five terminal blocks/patch cord troughs on each side of the frame. A cable support structure, apparatus mounting 1110C1, mounts directly on top of the 1110A2 apparatus mounting frame and provides support for all cables routed to and from the frame.

Wall Mounting 66-Type Connecting Blocks
The first column of 66-type connecting blocks should be aligned with
the left side of the switch cabinet (Figure 3-7). This arrangement allows
for orderly growth toward the right side of the cross-connect field.
The connectorized 66-type connecting blocks are factory wired for cable routing from the top so that the cable connector will align with the connector on the connecting block. If cable routing from the bottom is desired, then the connector on the connecting block must be removed and rotated 180 degrees. Then, the connector must be relocated in the previously unoccupied hole because the connecting block leads are not long enough to reach the hole where the connector was previously mounted. The VELCRO® cable retainer must also be relocated.
To install the cross-connect field, proceed as follows:
1. Draw a level horizontal line on the wall 12 inches above the floor

CHAPTER 3. EQUIPMENT ROOM DESIGN
Repeat Steps 2, 3 and 4 until each backboard or connecting block
has been installed.
Note: The 66-type connecting blocks should not be installed more than 78-1/2 inches above the floor.
Installing Cable Slack Managers
To install the cable slack managers (Figure 2-17), proceed as follows:
1.
Place the Z113A cable slack manager against the wall under the
cross-connect field (Figure 3-9), aligning the left side of the cable
slack manager with the first terminal block of the trunk/auxiliary field.
2.
Place the next cable slack manager beside the previously installed cable slack manager. Align the tabs and interlocks, and snap the cable slack managers together.
3.
Repeat Step 2 until all cable slack managers are installed.
Note: Nine holes (¼-inch) are provided in a cable slack manager base in the event earthquake mounting is required. Also, if a cable slack manager base is mounted on an uneven floor, shims may be required to level it and insure proper fit of the covers. Holes are provided in the sides of the base for bolting cable slack managers together. Bolts and shims must be obtained locally.

Routing Cables From Cabinet to Cross-Connect Field
The following guidelines should be followed when routing cables from the cabinet to the cross-connect field.
● When cable routing is to the top/bottom of the cross-connect field, each port cable is connected at the cabinet and then routed along the front trough of the cable slack manager to the connecting/terminal block where the cable is to be terminated.
● Enough slack must be left at the cabinet end of the cable to allow
for proper dressing of the cables (Figure 3-50).
● Route the cable from the cabinet to the wall. Place the cable beside one of the rows of columns in the cable slack manager
(see Note).
Note: Retainers mounted on the columns keep the cable from protruding above the top of the base of the cable slack manager.
● Determine the length of the cable required to reach from the cable slack manager to the assigned connecting/terminal block.
● The cable must be supported on the wall using D rings.
● Cable slack is stored by coiling the cable around the columns in the cable slack manager. The first run should always go across the full length of the five columns in the cable slack manager.
● Connect the cable to the assigned connecting/terminal block.

CHAPTER 3. EQUIPMENT ROOM DESIGN
Installing Coupled Bonding Conductor (CBC) Grounding
A CBC must be tie-wrapped to all trunk cables. The CBC connects the cabinet single-point ground block to the approved ground located nearest the telephone company owned protector block at the building
entrance facility (Figure 3-59).
Note: The CBC is a conductor that is connected to ground and run adjacent to the pairs in an inside wiring cable. The mutual coupling between the bonding conductor and the cable pairs reduces potential differences in terminating equipment. The conductor consists of a No. 10 AWG wire that is tie-wrapped to the inside wiring cable.
APPROVED GROUNDS
An approved ground is an acceptable medium for grounding the building entrance protector, entrance cable shield, or single-point ground of electronic PBX equipment. If more than one type of approved ground is available on the premises, the grounds must be bonded together as required in Section 250-81 of the National Electrical Code.
Metal Frame of the Building — the metal frame of the building where it is effectively grounded by one of the following grounds: acceptable metallic water pipe, concrete encased ground, or a ground ring.
Acceptable Water Pipe — a metal underground water pipe, at least 1/2 inch in diameter, in direct contact with the earth for at least 10 feet. The pipe must be electrically continuous (or made electrically continuous by bonding around insulated joints, plastic pipe, or plastic water meters) to the point where the protector ground wire is connected. A metallic underground water pipe must be supplemented by the metal frame of the building, a concrete encased ground, or a ground ring. If these grounds are not available, the water pipe ground can be supplemented by one of the following types of grounds:
●
Metal underground gas piping system—an electrically continuous metal underground gas piping system that is uninterrupted with insulating sections or joints and without an outer nonconductive coating
●
Other local metal underground systems or structures—local underground structures such as tanks and piping systems
3-86
Equipment Room Hardware And Cabling Installation
●
Rod and pipe electrodes—a 5/8 inch (solid rod) or 3/4 inch
(conduit or pipe) electrode driven to a minimum depth of 8 feet
● Plate electrodes—expose a minimum of 2 square feet of metallic surface to the exterior soil.
Concrete Encased Ground — an electrode encased by at least 2 inches of concrete and located within and near the bottom of a concrete foundation or footing in direct contact with the earth. The electrode must be at least 20 feet of one or more steel reinforcing bars or rods 1/2 inch in diameter, or at least 20 feet of bare, solid copper, No. 4 AWG wire.
Ground Ring — a buried ground that encircles a building or structure at a depth of at least 2-1/2 feet below the earth’s surface. The ground ring must be at least 20 feet of No. 2 AWG, bare, copper wire.
APPROVED FLOOR GROUNDS
Approved floor grounds are those grounds on the floor of a high-rise building suitable for connection to the ground terminal in the riser closet and to the PBX equipment single-point ground terminal. Such grounds may be one of the following:
● Building steel
● The grounding conductor for the secondary side of the power transformer feeding the floor
● Metallic water pipes
● Power feed metallic conduit supplying panel boards on the floor
● A grounding point specifically provided in the building for the purpose.
