The termination managers provide pair positioning, control,
and strain relief features to the rear termination area of the
panel. See Figure 1. Instructions for using the termination
manager are listed below.
Feed Pairs into Termination Manager (Figure 2)
1. Trim jacket back at least 3 inches (76mm) to expose
twisted pairs.
2. Without crossing over or rearranging pairs out of
the jacket, position pairs in-line per pair colors below:

Blue, Brown, Orange, Green
T568A Wiring Application
Blue, Brown, Green, Orange
3. Insert pairs through 4 holes on top surface of termination
manager, one pair per hole, as shown.
4. Continue to feed pairs through termination manager until
resistance is encountered at the jacket. This will usually be
about 1/4 inch (6mm) from the jacket.
Fold Pairs into Slots (Figure 3)
5. Fold each pair over into adjoining slots on bottom end of
termination manager. Conductor colors must be arranged
in the slots as listed below:
T568B Wiring Application (Shown)
BL/OR Pairs –Blue/Orange conductors on top
BR/GR Pairs –both White conductors on top
T568A Wiring Application
BL/GR Pairs –Blue/Green conductors on top
BR/OR Pairs –both White conductors on top
Important: Add twist as needed to align pairs with
slots. Never remove twist for any pair. Do not allow
pairs to untwist inside termination manager or inside
cable jacket.
6. Ensure that both conductors of each pair are in slots
completely without being pinched over bottom end surface.
