Figure 6 "Connect the system to the MDF" (page 26) shows the cable

connection between the system and the MDF.

Determine the number of NE-A25B cables needed to connect one

module to the MDF.

Label each end of the cable specifying the module number, the

connector name (A, B, C), and the card type (SILC or UILC).

Plug one end of a cable into the appropriate connector on the I/O

panel at the rear of the module. Plug the other end of the cable into

the corresponding connector on the MDF.

4 Properly identify cables on the MDF. For example, plug the cable into

connector A on the I/O panel and into the connector labeled A on the

MDF, if an SILC or UILC is installed in slot 0 of an IPE module.

Repeat steps 2 through 4 for all cables in that module.

6 Repeat steps 1 through 5 for all modules containing SILCs and/or

UILCs.

Lay all the cables neatly and fasten them with cable ties.

Label the MDF, as necessary, using Table 3 "SILC port designations

at the MDF: NT8D37 IPE module (16-cable conﬁguration)"

(page 27) through Table 6 "NT8D37 IPE moduleSILC and UILC

pair-terminations for connectors B, F, L, S (12-cable conﬁguration)"

(page 33) beginning on Table 3 "SILC port designations at the MDF:

NT8D37 IPE module (16-cable conﬁguration)" (page 27).
