Each module is connected to its own run of cable (two modules in one place; two cables.) Installed cable terminates onto the back of the outlet module All cables connected to outlet modules head back to a common point. All cables terminate onto a patch panel at the common point. Cables from modules terminate onto the back of the patch panel. Typically a cabinet is used at the common point to house the patch panel(s). Connectivity equipment may also be installed in the cabinet. Patch leads are used to connect devices and equipment to the cabling system. Patch leads connected between patch 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 panel ports may be used to link one 12 Way HD Panel wall outlet to another. Adaptors or converters may be required for certain signal types. Audio / Video Source Display Page 2

Cabling Detail - Wall Outlets & Outlet Modules Wall outlet features Single module installed in face plate Mounting screw hole Mounting Back Box Standard electrical type 85mm*85mm back box For standard modules (as shown) a minimum of 39mm front face to back face clearance is required. With a standard 15mm face plate a 24mm backbox is acceptable. ¼ Blank Single Gang face plate 15mm Will hold one or two modules 39mm Dual gang available for four modules NOTE: Connectix standard face plates and modules are not compatible with EuroMod (50mm*50mm) plates or modules. Connectix manufacturers EuroMod modules for use with EuroMod faceplates. Wall outlet module features The compact Net5e module requires 24mm minimum. With a 9mm compact face plate a 15mm back box is acceptable Cable saddle with cable tie anchor point Colour legend Insulation Displacement Connector (IDC) Punch down strip NOTE: A number of module size formats exist, certain combinations of faceplate and module are incompatible. Connectix modules are available to fit in a range of face plates including Connectix, LJ6C and EuroMod standards. Example uses Retaining Clip Label strip Shutter door covering RJ-45 socket A telephone with BT type plug may be connected to a wall outlet using a Line Adaptor Unit (LAU) A Local Area Network (LAN) can be used for data connectivity between PCs and other data devices. A patch lead is used to connect the device to the wall outlet Page 3

Structured Cabling Cabinets & Enclosures 10" Small Office / Home Cabling Cabinets 10" Connectix Office System Cabinet 10" cabinets are designed to be used with 10" format patch panels and other cabinet hardware such as shelves and blank panels. As a space saving alternative to commercial 19" cabinets the 10" range is ideally suited to small office and home installations. Connectix Home Cabinet Designed for home cabling system use the Home Cabinet range is low profile, compact and able to accommodate typical home cabling system hardware requirements using minimal space. The ability to house larger pieces of equipment has been sacrificed against the need for space saving aesthetic design. Typically phone and cabling system panels, RF TV distribution, data networking and broadband equipment can be installed. 19" Full Size Structured Cabling Cabinets - Commercial / Advanced Home 19" cabinets are typically used in commercial or advanced home installations where either a high number of cabling system connections are required or where there will be a lot of equipment installed in the cabinet. Cabinet height is measured in cabinet Units (U) with one 24 port patch panel typically requiring 1U. (1U = 44mm.) Floor standing cabinets are used where lots of space is required for cabling system hardware or heavy equipment. In situations where 19" equipment is to be accommodated without the need for lots of U space a wall mounted cabinet may be used if a suitable mounting surface exists. Where there is no need for security and if the U space requirement is low a wall mount frame may be used. Page 4

Cabling Detail - Patch Panel 10" 12 Port Patch Panel General Detail Port number designation strip Mounting screw RJ-45 ports Cable tidy ring slot Patch Cable Tidy Ring Installation Features Patch panels are available in 10" and 19" formats giving 12 and 24 ports respectively. Each port connects to a single Cat 5e / Cat 6 cable using an Insulation Displacement Connector (IDC) punch down strip on the rear of the panel. RJ-45 ports on the front of the panel are used to connect wall outlet ports to equipment or other wall outlet ports by by using patch cables. The mounting screws fix the panel into a cabinet or enclosure using cage nuts supplied with the panel. Cable tidy rings may be fitted to the panel in either a horizontal or vertical orientation. When installed patch cables may be routed through the rings for tidy patch cable management. Insulation Displacement Connector (IDC) Punch Down Strip Wire position legend Cable tidy ring Cable tie points (Velcro ties NOT on 10" panels) Example uses Cables to BT type wall outlet modules have been terminated onto a patch panel and are connected to a telephone distribution panel with blue patch leads. Cables terminated onto RJ-45 wall outlets have been terminated onto a patch panel and are connected to a LAN switch with red patch leads. Page 5

Screw head keyways for surface mounting Page 6

Home Cabling System Cabinet Connectix Office System 8U Cabinet The Connectix Office System cabinet shares the same frame with removable outer carcass design as the slim line cabinet. Cable entry knock out The carcass may be removed during installation allowing improved access to cabling hardware and installed equipment. The door hinge position is selected by choosing the orientation of the carcass when affixed onto the frame. Compared to the Slim Line version, increased depth typically allows installation of more equipment which may be accommodated on optional shelves. The smoked polycarbonate door allows visual inspection of equipment operation inside the cabinet. The lock provides a basic level of security reducing the chance of casual tampering when installed in occupied or public spaces. All 10" cabinet hardware can be installed in the Connectix Office System Cabinet.

Cat6 Cable, Connector Detail & Termination Tools Cable and Connector detail Cat6 cable Each pair consists of a solid colour insulated conductor twisted with an associated white with same colour stripe. Cat5e is similar but without the divider Blue Pair Divider Orange Pair RJ-45 Plug Pin1 T568B Wiring Scheme Pin No. Wire Colour Colour Symbols 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 White / Orange Stripe Orange White / Green Stripe Blue White / Blue Stripe Green White / Brown Stripe Brown Brown Pair Green Pair Cable jacket Signals sent over Cat5e / Cat6 must use the wires in their correct pairs for proper operation. Equipment designed for Cat5e / Cat6 connection routes signals to RJ-45 socket contacts using specific wired pairs. A signal should not be split across the Orange and Green wires, for example. Termination errors can result in wires connected to the wrong patch panel / module IDC positions. Use of the 8 wires is defined in two ways, T568A and T568B. Connectix IDC products use the B version as shown above. When installing Cat5e / Cat6 follow the component colour legend to ensure correct termination. Tools used in structured cabling installation IDC Punch Down Tool Used for terminating cables onto module and Patch panel IDC strips. All Connectix products use a Krone type contact. Failure to use a Krone type tool will result in permanent damage to the component or failure to operate reliably. Maximum cut cable stripper Aids cable jacket removal without damaging conductor insulation The tip of the punch down tool consists of an insertion blade designed for Krone contacts and a pair of snips which cut away excess cable all in one operation. Screw Driver Cross head for panel mounting screws. Flat head for faceplates and module removal from face plate. Continuity Tester Used to test terminated cabling or patch leads for basic wiring faults such as incorrect wire position, open and short circuit connections. Wire cutters Used for cutting installed cable from reel / box. Removal of cable tie excess. Page 8

Cat6 Cable Termination - Wall Outlet Module 1. Strip outer jacket. Do not knick conductor insulation with tool used to cut outer jacket. Use a purpose designed maximum cut stripping tool 2. Fan out conductors. A tidy termination will be achieved if the cable is rotated so that the pairs exit on the right side of the cable for the relavent IDC positions on the module / patch panel. Snip away any excess rip cord and cable divider. (There will be no divider in Cat5e cable.) Keep pair un-twist to a minimum Bring cable jacket to end of saddle Use cable tie to secure cable & reduce strain on termination 3. Lay conductors into IDCs Use the strain relief cable tie point to secure the cable for easier handling. Do not deform the cable by over tightening the cable tie. Follow the colour legend to identify the correct IDC position for each wire. Pin 1 Pin 2 Pin 3 Pin 4 Pin 5 Pin 6 Pin 7 Pin 8 White / Orange Stripe Orange White / Green Stripe Blue White / Blue Stripe Green White / Brown Stripe Brown Note: Some IDC layout / cable lay combinations do not allow for punch down of all conductors during the same operation. In the example shown the green pair falls above the brown pair and gets in the way if laid into the IDC before the browns are punched. 4. Punch down conductors Only use a Krone type punch down tool with Connectix IDC based products. Note: Use the tool with the cutter blades facing out away from the IDC so as to remove excess cable and not cut the incoming. Ensure the cut end is not bent around where it could short with the next contact. 5. Clip module into faceplate. Manage excess cable behind module to avoid crush and cable deformation. Exceeding minimum bend radii (25mm) will result in performance degradation. Trim cable tie excess off carefully to avoid leaving sharp exposed points Page 9

Cat6 Cable Termination - Patch Panel 1. Strip outer jacket. Do not knick conductor insulation while stripping outer jacket. Use a purpose designed maximum cut stripping tool. 2. Fan out conductors. Rotate the cable for correct pair alignment with patch panel IDC positions. Need for pairs to cross each other should be non-existent or at a minimum. Snip away any excess rip cord and cable divider. (There will be no divider in Cat5e cable.) Keep pair un-twist to a minimum Match cable orientation to IDC wire position requirements Bring cable jacket close to IDC group for port being terminated 3. Lay conductors into IDCs Follow the colour legend to identify the correct IDC position for each wire. Pin 1 Pin 2 Pin 3 Pin 4 Pin 5 Pin 6 Pin 7 Pin 8 White / Orange Stripe Orange White / Green Stripe Blue White / Blue Stripe Green White / Brown Stripe Brown Note: Some IDC layout / cable lay combinations will require pairs to be crossed for correct positioning. Typically if pulling cable with the box at the panel location, pulling out to the wall outlets, the cable will have the correct orientation not to require crossing of pairs at the panel. 4. Punch down conductors Only use a Krone type punch down tool with Connectix IDC based products. Note: Use the tool with the cutter blades facing out away from the IDC so as to remove excess cable and not cut the incoming. Ensure the cut end is not bent around where it could short with the next contact. 5. Bundle and tie cables. IDC connections can be pulled from their contact fairly easily. Use the cable tie points to secure the cables before installing the panel in a cabinet or enclosure. Ensure the tie does not deform the shape of the cables through over tightening. Trim cable tie excess off carefully to avoid leaving sharp exposed points Page 10

Structured Cabling - Frequently Asked Questions Q. What is the maximum length run of Cat5e or Cat6 that I can install A. An installation compliant to structured cabling system standards can have up to 90m installed cable and a further 10m of patch cable for equipment connection. Typical data applications for Local Area Networking (such as Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet) have this as a design limit in their specifications. Other applications for video, audio, security system or telephone connection allow much longer lengths. If you want all typical applications to work stick to the 90m limit. Alternatively check with the equipment manufacturer (some high definition video systems for Cat5e/6 may have a lower limit) Q. Should I use Cat5e or Cat6? A. Cat6 is a higher performance cabling system compared to Cat5e. If installed correctly it can provide higher performance and better immunity to interference depending on the signals being carried. Currently all typical applications function with Cat5e just as well as with Cat6. However, the latest version of Ethernet (operating at 10Gbps) will not function on Cat5e but it may function on Cat6 for cable lengths up to 30m. The decision between Cat5e and Ca6 is usually based on requirements of the equipment to be connected, personal point of view and cost. Q. What happens if I mix Cat5e / Cat6 patch panels, modules and cable? A. The cabling system will operate at the performance level of the lowest performance component, in this case Cat5e. Q. What is Cat7 and Cat8? A. Cat7 and Cat8 are terms used to refer to proprietary cabling systems which claim performance better than standards based Cat5e and Cat6. Q. Should I consider a Cat7 / Cat8 cabling system? A. Systems referred to with these terms usually offer more functionality than Cat5e or Cat6; for example the ability to transmit RF TV signals on structured cabling. However, to compare with Cat5e / Cat6, remember that the cost of such systems is typically two or three times that of combined CatX and co-ax systems offering similar functionality. Also proprietary cabling systems only available from one source. Q. Can I use Cat5e or Cat6 for audio or video signals A. It is sometimes possible to send AV signals without conversion over Cat5e/Cat6. Signal loss and interference can result in poor video images or audio combined with hum or other interference, particularly on line level signals. Signal conditioning converters are available for low loss noise free transmission of AV signals over Cat5e / Cat6 cabling. The cost of these converters depends on the signals to be carried. Composite or component AV (including surround sound) and HD video on HDMI can be carried on Cat5e / Cat6. Q. Can I make patch leads using solid cable? A. Crimping RJ-45 connectors onto solid cable is possible but not recommended. Small amounts of movement on the cable can break the conductors in the plug. The result is intermittent failures which are difficult to find. Patch leads are normally made from stranded cable having greater flexibility than solid cable with lower likely hood of breaking. Q. What do I need to make my own patch leads? A. You will need some stranded patch cable, RJ-45 connectors and an RJ-45 crimp tool. Ensure that you have the correct tool for the brand of connector otherwise an under or over crimped plug will result. Under crimped plugs will permanently damage RJ-45 sockets. Over crimped plugs will cause intermittent connection failures. Page 11
