Snap Termination Manager onto Rear Housing
(Figure 4)
7. Snap assembled termination manager onto rear
housing with pair colors in proper position. Push
on using the termination manager, not by
pushing with the cable. (Ensure that both snaps
on manager fully seat into rear housing.)
8. After termination manager is snapped onto rear
housing, untwist individual pairs fully and line up
correct color conductor and white conductor with
the label on the rear housing. (The white
conductor is always on the right.)
Seat Wires into IDC Terminal Slots
(Figure 5)
9. Grasping each untwisted pair, push the
conductors down into IDC terminal slots to seat
them before punching down. Seat down into
slots as far as possible. (It may be easier to use
needle nose pliers to perform this task.)
10. Using the D-914 punch tool with M110 blade,
punch down conductors making sure the tool is
straight and that conductors fully engage in the
IDC terminals. Stagger the punch-down tool up
and down, so that it stays in alignment with the
staggered terminal slots.
Recommendations to Aid Assembly
1. Remove up to 5 inches (127mm) of cable jacket
to aid in seating conductors into IDC slots.
2. The termination manager should be snapped
onto the rear housing immediately after the pairs
have been fed and folded over into the slots. All
termination managers should be installed on the
panel before proceeding to seat and punch
down conductors.
3. Flex cables down for easier access, then seat
and punch down the entire top row of the panel.
4. Flex cables up for easier access, then seat and
punch down the entire bottom row.
