Important safety admonishments are used throughout this manual to warn of possible hazards
to persons or equipment. An admonishment identifies a possible hazard and then explains
what may happen if the hazard is not avoided. The admonishments — in the form of Dangers,
Warnings, and Cautions — must be followed at all times. These warnings are flagged by use
of the triangular alert icon (seen below), and are listed in descending order of severity of
injury or damage and likelihood of occurrence.
Danger: Danger is used to indicate the presence of a hazard that will cause severe personal
injury, death, or substantial property damage if the hazard is not avoided.
Warning: Warning is used to indicate the presence of a hazard that can cause severe
personal injury, death, or substantial property damage if the hazard is not avoided.

2.1 Functional Description
This section contains a functional description for the 2-, 4-, and 6-wire Connectorized Jackfields.
The functions for the 2-, 4- and 6-wire Connectorized Jackfields are similar. Each jackfield
provides front panel jack access for maintenance, test and monitoring for 2-, 4- or 6-wire
circuits. The 2- and 4-wire jackfields are equipped with four 50-pin connectors and the 6-wire
jackfield is equipped with twelve 50-pin connectors for terminating connectorized cables
wired to network elements and office equipment. The 4- and 6-wire Connectorized Jackfield
panels are used in circuits that have separate transmission transmit and receive paths. The 6wire jackfield also provides access for the circuit signals.
2.1.1
2-Wire Connectorized Jackfield Panel
The 2-wire Connectorized Jackfield panel provides an access jack interface for connecting up to
forty-eight 2-wire circuits (T and R). See Figure 1. Each jack circuit consists of front panel
access jacks designated LINE, DROP, and MON (monitor) providing maintenance, test and
monitor functions. The LINE and DROP jacks are intrusive. Inserting a plug in the LINE or
DROP jack breaks the connection associated with that circuit. The MON (monitor) jack is nonintrusive. Inserting a plug in the MON jack provides monitor access to the LINE side circuit.
Circuits are designated 1 through 48 (viewed from front, left to right).
2.1.2
4-Wire Connectorized Jackfield Panel
The 4-wire Connectorized Jackfield panel provides an access jack interface for connecting up
to twenty-four 4-wire circuits (T, R, T1 and R1). See Figure 2. Each jack circuit consists of
front panel access jacks designated DEM, EQ IN, MON, MOD, EQ OUT and MON
providing maintenance, test and monitor functions. The DEM and EQ IN jacks on the receive
(T1 and R1) side and the MOD and EQ OUT jacks on the transmit (T and R) side are
intrusive. Inserting a plug in either of these jacks breaks the connection associated with that
circuit. The MON jacks are non intrusive. Inserting a plug in the MON jacks provides
monitor access to either the DEM side circuit on the receive side (T1 and R1) or MOD side
circuit on the transmit side (T and R). Circuits are designated 1 through 24 (as viewed from
front, left to right).
2.1.3
6-Wire Connectorized Jackfield Panel
The 6-wire Connectorized Jackfield panel provides an access jack interface for connecting up
to forty-eight 6-wire circuits (T, R, T1, R1, E and M). See Figure 3. Each circuit consists of
front panel access jacks designated DEM, MOD, EQ IN, EQ OUT, SIG EQ, SIG LINE, and
two MON providing maintenance, test and monitor functions. The SIG LINE and SIG EQ
jacks are intrusive along with the DEM and EQ IN jacks on the receive (T1 and R1) side and
the MOD and EQ OUT jacks on the transmit (T and R) side. Inserting a plug in either of
these jacks breaks the connection associated with that circuit. The MON jacks are nonintrusive. Inserting a plug in the MON jack provides monitor access to either the DEM side
circuit on the receive (T1 and R1) side or MOD side circuit on the transmit (T and R) side.
Circuits are designated 1 through 24 (viewed from front, left to right) on the top slot and 25
through 48 on the bottom slot.
