How to use

Route Cat6 UTP cables to each RJ-45 outlet and terminate them on the unshielded LSA terminals following the T568A or T568B wiring scheme as required. Secure cables with tie wraps or management panels to maintain order and reduce strain on terminations. After termination, verify connectivity with a cable tester before placing the panel into regular service.

Recommendations

Use Cat6 unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) cables for optimal performance with this panel and avoid introducing mixed shielding types. Keep cable lengths and bend radii within standard limits and perform continuity and pair-mapping tests after installation to ensure reliable network operation.
