Step Eight

Locate POTS Lines and Perform Cutover (if in scope)

Once the unit and antenna are mounted, powered on, and functioning correctly, begin identifying in-scope lines and proceed with the cutover.

Locate In-Scope Lines
  1. Identify phone numbers on the block or patch panel.
  2. Carefully remove each POTS line, labeling it with its number.
Cut Devices Over to MarketSpark Lines
  1. Run a cross-connect from the MarketSpark 66 block to the device’s cross-connect point. Terminate as required.
  2. Punch lines to right side of MarketSpark block, ensuring:
    1. Bridge clips are installed (see photo)
    2. White striped wire above solid color
  3. Feed each line’s 2 wires through the row’s top tooth (see photo)
  4. If surface mount jacks are in scope, install and terminate at an approved location for cutover.
