You need to ensure that all cables are screwed in to the backplane and that the Champ connectors are tie wrapped. (See Figure B-1.)

In a DOH configuration, use only designated cables to connect the Cisco 6100, Cisco 6110, Cisco 6120, and MDF. This section provides tables and illustrations for the following cables:

Note Some chassis connectors in the cabling diagrams are not used because they are specific to one of the other configurations of the Cisco 6100 with NI-1 system or because they are reserved for future use. |
You can use one-to-one cables to connect the Cisco 6100, Cisco 6110, and Cisco 6120 for systems using dual-port CAP ATU-C modules. Table B-2 lists the backplane connectors and the part numbers for the basic one-to-one cable.

Note When you use the one-to-one cable, see Table B-5 for port mapping information. |
Figure B-2 shows the cabling connecting the DOH components in which the cables listed in Table B-2 are used.

You can use the following cables to connect the Cisco 6120 to the MDF in a DOH configuration:
You can use one-to-one cables to connect the Cisco 6120 to the MDF or POTS service connectors. Table B-3 lists the backplane connectors, the available cable lengths, and the part numbers for the one-to-one cables. Each cable has the same pinouts. The only difference between the four cables is the length. Use the length that works best for your configuration.

Figure B-3 shows the one-to-one cable.

Figure B-4 shows the cabling between the Cisco 6120 to the MDF in which the cables listed in Table B-3 are used.

Figure B-5 shows the cabling between the Cisco 6120 to the POTS service connections in which the cables listed in Table B-3 are used.

To associate the Cisco 6120 MDF or POTS wire pairs and the Cisco 6100 modem ports, the two-to-two cable remaps the wire pairs from the Cisco 6120 MDF or POTS connectors to the Cisco 6120 connectors. You can use the two-to-two cable to

Note When you use the two-to-two cable, see Table B-6 for port mapping information. |
Figure B-6 shows the two-to-two cable.

Figure B-7 shows the cabling between the xDSL subscriber line connectors on the Cisco 6120 and the MDF in which the cables listed in Table B-4 are used.

Figure B-8 shows the cabling between the voice lines on the Cisco 6120 and the voice-switching equipment that provides local POTS service. The cables listed in Table B-4 are used for the connection.

In a subtended network configuration, use only designated cables to connect the DS3 subtending I/O card to the system I/O card. This section provides the cabling diagrams and cable connections.
Two system I/O cards are currently available. Figure B-9 shows the basic cabling of the subtended network configuration with the system I/O card that is available from Release 2.4.0 and later.

Note Some connectors are not used because they are specific to one of the other configurations of the Cisco 6100 or because they are reserved for future use. |

Figure B-10 shows the basic cabling of the subtended network configuration with the system I/O card that is available earlier than Release 2.4.0.

The DS3 subtending I/O card on the subtending host chassis connects directly to the system I/O card on the subtended node chassis. You should add ferrites to the DS3 75-ohm coaxial cables that you use to cable the DS3 subtending I/O card to the system I/O card. Doing so reduces the radiation/EMI susceptibility of the system to high frequency noise. For more information, see "Installing a Subtended Network in a Digital Off-Hook Configuration."
This section provides port mapping tables which show the wire pair and chassis port assignments for the following configurations and cables:
Table B-5 maps the Cisco 6100 ports, the Cisco 6110 ports, and the wire pairs when using the one-to-one cables (see Table B-3) for a DOH configuration.

Table B-6 maps the Cisco 6110 ports, the Cisco 6120 ports, and the wire pairs when using the two-to-two cables (see Table B-4) for a DOH configuration. The corresponding cable kit number is CAB-PSC-80-REPIN.
You can use the two-to-two cables to clearly associate the mapping between the wire pairs and the Cisco 6100 and Cisco 6120 ports. These cables attach to the Cisco 6120 MDF connections (J11 to J14) and the Cisco 6120 POTS connections (J7 to J10) for systems using dual-port xTU-C modules.
