Connecting Network Cables
Selecting the Appropriate Network Cables
The EdgeFLEX 600 is capable of providing a variety of different interface types to connect to the
network. In general, the ports on the SCPX cards are regarded as high-speed “trunk” or network-side
ports, and the ports on the linecards in the upper slot positions are regarded as “tributary” or customer-
side ports, though no such distinctions between interfaces are made in the management system. The
EdgeFLEX 600 can accommodate the following network interfaces:
Interface Type Connector Type Cable Type
DS1/E1 High-density
connector
Carrier Access custom cable to breakout panel providing RJ-48
interfaces
10/100 Ethernet RJ-45 100-ohm Category 5 UTP

maximum depth) low-profile strain relief housing on fiber optic
cables, in order to meet the 300mm depth requirements.
