I have to go to a location where I have to

- find the demarc

- I have to find the number that DSL is on...this should be the primary number.

- I have to split the voice and data on that line, and run thru a NID Splitter....HOW IN THE HELL DO I DO THIS ?

- then I have to run the wires from the NID to the dual port wall plates and jack, which I have to label VOICE and DATA, and then run telephone cord from off the jack to the cisco 877 router, and also a analog phone equipment.

NOW ALL OF THAT IS JUST USING THE MAIN NUMBER IN THE BUILDING...THERE IS ALSO A 'MODEM' NUMBER THAT IS TOTALLY DIFFERENT FROM THE PRIMARY NUMBER.

FROM THE DEMARC, ONCE I FIND THIS NUMBER I HAVE TO :

- split out the cable pairs to another dual port wall plate and jack, and then run telephone cord from off each jack to a switch (already existing), and also to the US robotics modem (already on site)


can any one help explain this to mean....i understand the "flow" of what the customer wants..but it is the actual "work" that I am not sure of....

Thanks

Hi and to the board. Please finish filling out your profile. You'll get a much better response from the techs if they know who they are talking to.

Any telephone tech can do what you want a lot easier then your description. You don't need the dsl at every outlet. Call for help.

You sound a bit over your head here..so Like mark said you may want to find some help.

For starters you would not need to run the DSL to every jack. you should have a home from each jack to a central location. one run for voice...one run for data per jack. Make sure you use the proper cable for each. These need to be properly ran and terminated at the central location (closet, storage room, telco room...etc) on the correct type of panels. You will need some additional harware to set up the network. You say their is an exsisting switch,,,this may require additional cards and programming to make this work. If you are not familier with the system you may want to consider subbing this out.

anthony...i do not need to run it to every jack (DSL)...I only need to run it off the block thru a NID splitter then to a wall jack.....

my ultimate question is how you punch down the exposed wire to the wall jack
?

The wires aren't usually exposed if you're using a jack such as a Leviton that requires punchdown. If that's the type jack you're using, there will be a small tool in the package to do the punchdown, although if you're going to be in this business I'd suggest getting a good punchdown tool with a 110 blade. Other jacks just use screw terminals.

Was that your question or were you referring to the colors and where they connect? Tell us what type of jacks you're using.

You will need to be more specific about details new2telecom. There are too many unknowns here to give you a simple answer. I assumed when you say "exposed wire" you are talking about the termination point where all of the cables that run to the jacks would be terminated. MacGyver assumed something else. With the details you've given, it's pretty much impossible to figure out how to help you.

USE PIN'S 1236 FOR DATA AND 4578 FOR VOICE OR JUST GET TWO SPLITTER'S FOR NEAR END & FAR END

Data cables should never be split if it can be at all avoided. We don't know enough about this situation to know if it's required, or even possible.

just curious how you got tagged to do this work in the first place. What is your background that the customer is asking you to do this?
