1. Introduction
The On-Q/Legrand Network Interface Module (P/N
363486-01) provides a convenient structured
interconnect for local area network (LAN)
applications, such as 10/100 BASE-T Ethernet.
The Network Interface Module (see Figure 1) is a
group of interconnects that run from 110 punch-
down blocks to RJ45 connectors while maintaining
Category 5e performance. The modules are
designed for direct mounting in On-Q Service
Center Enclosures.
2. Description
Each Network Interface Module has eight 4 pair 110 punch-down connectors for connecting to On-Q outlets.
The punch-down connectors are connected to individual RJ45 connectors, which provide the interface to the
LAN. The Network interface Module occupies three vertical inches and half the width of the enclosure.
3. Installation
A. Mounting in enclosure
1) Align tabs on module with slots on the rear of the enclosure.
2) Insert tabs by angling module away from the back of the enclosure.
3) Rotate the module and insert fasteners on module into corresponding holes on the rear of the
enclosure. (Plunger must be in a pulled out position for fastener to engage hole.)
4) Push plunger in to lock module in place. Pull on module to assure module is locked properly in place.

B. Port - Outlet cable termination
1) Identify outlet cable and route to one of the numbered 110 punch-down blocks. In routing cable allow
slack for bundling to the side and avoiding other cable terminations. Trim cable about 2 inches
beyond connector.
2) Strip off approximately 4 inches of the outer jacket using On-Q Cat 5 Strip Tool (P/N 363292-01 or
equivalent.
3) Position pairs over color-coded slots on the connector.
Note: Do not untwist pairs.
Note: White wires may not have color trace stripe. Keep white wire paired with appropriate colored wire
based on twist.
4) Without untwisting cable, position the wires in individual slots as shown in Figure 3.
5) Punch-down and trim wires using On-Q Punch Down Tool (P/N 363293-01) or equivalent.
6) Remove excess wire and tug slightly on cable to assure wire is securely installed in connector.
7) Record room number to connector number.
8) Repeat until all outlets are connected.
C. Securing Cables
After all cables are connected to the module the cables should be bundled and grouped to allow ease of
maintenance. Wire management straps, P/N 363491-01, may be used to bundle cable.
