Connecting ATM Devices
After inserting the module, attach the cables to the ATM ports that will connect to ATM
devices.
Cabling Up
The following sections provide instructions and guidelines for connecting ATM devices
(such as switches, servers, personal computers, and workstations). Remember these
tips when connecting cables:
Avoid stretching and bending the cables too much.
Avoid routing the cables near potential sources of electromagnetic interference,
such as motorized devices and fluorescent lights.
Avoid trip hazards by routing the cables away from aisles and other areas where
people walk. If such routes cannot be avoided, use floor cable covers or similar
material to secure and protect the cables.
Be sure that the cables connected to the 6412M-25-TP module are supported so
that the cable connectors are not excessively strained. The cable management
bracket shipped with the ONcore hub or CELLplex 4000 expansion unit helps
prevent strain on the cables.
Use a Category 3 or better UTP cable or a 150-ohm STP cable for each of the ATM
ports.
