How to Install the GPB484R4WJY Punchdown System
This guide provides step-by-step instructions for installing and configuring the GPB484R4WJY punchdown system, ensuring proper wiring and setup for optimal performance.
Estimated time: 45m
Tools needed:
Screwdriver, Wire strippers, Multimeter, Punchdown tool
Supplies needed:
Mounting screws, Terminal connectors, Cable identification labels
- Mount the base
Use appropriate mounting hardware to install the base on a sturdy surface, ideally 68 inches from the floor for optimal height. Ensure the Panduit lettering is upright.
- Route the cables
Carefully route the cables through the designated slots in the base, ensuring that the cable jacket end is within 1/2 inch from where the cable pairs will be inserted.
- Prepare the cable pairs
Strip the cable jacket only as required for termination, maintaining the twists in the pairs up to the termination point. Inspect the color placement of the cable pairs before proceeding.
- Insert and cut the wires
Using a GPST single wire punchdown tool or GPDTM multi-pair punchdown tool, insert and cut the pairs to length, ensuring the tool is aligned properly with the block.
- Secure the connecting block
Position the connecting block over the wired base and secure it in place using the punchdown tool, keeping the tool perpendicular to ensure a good termination.
- Terminate cross-connect wires
Once the connecting blocks are seated, terminate any cross-connect wires to the top of the connecting blocks or install GP6 PLUS patch cords as needed.
- Label the cables
Add cable identification to the label, fold it, and slide it into the label holder. Snap the label holder into position on the base between the rows of connecting blocks.
