4.1.7  

Using an External Main Distribution Frame or External Patch Panel 
 
The HiPath 3800 has various connection options for connecting the peripherals. The type of connection used will be decided in consultation with the customer on conclusion of the agreement. This may involve the implementation of an external main distribution frame or an external patch panel.
This section contains information on the following external components:
 •   Main distribution frame MDFU-E, Section 4.1.7.1 "Using an External Main Distribution Frame MDFU-E S30805-U5283-X"
 •   Patch panel S30807-K6143-X, Section 4.1.7.2 "Inserting the External Patch Panel S30807K6143-X"
 •   S0 patch panel C39104-Z7001-B3, Section 4.1.7.3 "Inserting External S0 Patch Panel C39104-Z7001-B3"
 •   For U.S. only: Connecting Network Facilities, Section 4.1.7.4 "For U.S. only: Connecting Network Facilities"

4.1.7.1  

Using an External Main Distribution Frame MDFU-E S30805-U5283-X 

For U.S. only:  
 Figure 4-36   MDFU-E - Layout and Dimensions (669.0 x 328.8 x 125.4 mm)
 
No more than 21 CABLUs per MDFU-E with one 16-TW strip or 25-TW strip (9 x 30 mm) can be implemented.

4.1.7.1.1  

Mounting the Main Distribution Frame (MDFU-E) 
The MDFU-E main distribution frame should be installed in the direct vicinity of the system (note length of connection cable) and at eye level.
The packing material contains a drawing that can be used as a drilling template.

Procedure for wall mounting  

 Step  
 Activity  
 1.  
Use the template to drill the holes.  
 2.  
Insert the wall anchors and screw in the screws, leaving 5 mm projecting.  
 3.  
Remove the housing cover and mount the MDFU-E on the brackets.  
 4.  
Tighten the screws through the holes.  

4.1.7.1.2  

Laying the Line Network and Jumpers on the MDFU-E 
Danger  
Be sure to connect the main protective earthing terminal on all system cabinets and all main distribution frames to the grounding point of the electrical building installation before connecting up the peripherals (for example, potential equalization bus).  

Jumpers, external line network  
Most main distribution frames do not have an external side. You must jumper them to the incoming line network (see jumpering duct, Figure 4-36). Use a standard wiring tool for laying the cable wires.

Surge protector  
To divert surge voltage caused by lightning, insert surge protectors on:
 •   lines that leave the system buildings (outside stations)
 •   lines > 500 m long
Connect the polarized surge protectors to the plugging locations on the splitting strip described above (see Figure 4-38).

4.1.7.2  

Inserting the External Patch Panel S30807K6143-X 

Structure  
All incoming cables must be attached to the patch panel using cable ties.  
 Figure 4-39   Patch Panel S30807-K6143-X
 

4.1.7.2.1  

Installing the Patch Panel in a 19-Inch Cabinet 

Installation Procedure  
Caution  
The patch panel must be installed above the system cabinet.  
A minimum of one height unit must be kept clear above the cabinet to guarantee sufficient ventilation of the system cabinet. This is achieved by the gray plastic cover fixed to the top of the system cabinets. Never remove this plastic cover.  
Insert the patch panel (A, in Figure 4-40) above the system cabinet and secure it to the 19-inch frame on both the left and the right using two screws on each side.
 Figure 4-40   Installing the External Patch Panel in the 19-Inch Cabinet
 

4.1.7.2.2  

Connecting the Line Network to the External Patch Panel 
Danger  
Be sure to connect the main protective earthing terminal on all system cabinets and all patch panels to the grounding point of the electrical building installation before connecting up the peripherals (for example, potential equalization bus).  
Telephones and trunks are connected directly to the MW8 jack on the front of the patch panel. Information on MW8 jack assignment on the front of the patch panel is provided in the board descriptions (in the "Cable and Connector Assignment" table) in Chapter 3 "Boards for HiPath 3000".

Surge protector  
To divert surges caused by lightning, insert surge protectors on
 •   lines that leave the system buildings (outside stations)
 •   lines > 500 m long.
Connect the polarized surge protectors to the plugging locations F1 to F8 provided on the patch panel (see Figure 4-42).

4.1.7.3  

Inserting External S0 Patch Panel C39104-Z7001-B3 

Structure  
All incoming cables must be attached to the patch panel using cable ties.

4.1.7.3.1  

Installing the S 0 Patch Panel in the 19-Inch Cabinet 

Installation Procedure  
Caution  
The patch panel must be installed above the system cabinet.  
A minimum of one height unit must be kept clear above the cabinet to guarantee sufficient ventilation of the system cabinet. This is achieved by the gray plastic cover fixed to the top of the system cabinets. Never remove this plastic cover.  
Insert the S0 patch panel (A, in Figure 4-44) above a system cabinet and secure it to the 19-inch frame on both the left and the right using two screws (B) on each side.

4.1.7.3.2  

Connecting Lines to the External S0 Patch Panel 
 Figure 4-45   Assignment of the S0 Patch Panel C39104-Z7001-B3
 
CABLUs must be manually connected to the S0 patch panel (Figure 4-46). You can use the Krone wiring tool for this.

The color codes for open-end cables are provided in Table 4-8.

4.1.7.4  

For U.S. only: Connecting Network Facilities 
NOTE  
Before installing the outgoing lines, the grounding of the system must be ensured.  

Connecting to the Point of Demarcation  
Most main distribution frames are designed with a network demarcation block. You must cross-connect the MDF to the incoming trunks. Use a standard wiring tool for laying the cable wires.

Connecting to T1, PRI, or CorNet  
NOTE  
The DIU2U and DIUT2 boards can only be installed in conjunction with a listed CSU (channel service unit).  

Additional primary protection  
NOTE  
Danger of damage to property due to surge voltage. Lines from the following boards that exit the building must be protected with an additional primary protection against surge voltage as a result of lightning:  
 •   DIU2U*
 •   DIUT2*
 •   SLMA / SLMA8
 •   TMC16
 •   TMDID
 •   TMEW2
 •   TM2LP
* When this board is connected to the public network, an additional primary protection must be provided by the CSU.
