50-Pin Telco-to-RJ45<br />
Octopus Cables<br />
The 10BASE-T ‘octopus’ cable breaks out the <strong>AT</strong>-3612T or <strong>AT</strong>-3624T Hub<br />
50-pin Telco connector to individual RJ45 connectors. This is an ideal method<br />
for connecting into a patch panel in the wiring closet. Patch panels allow for<br />
easy configuration and reconfiguration of house wiring requirements.<br />
When you purchase an octopus cable, ensure that it is wired for 10BASE-T<br />
and that Level 3 UTP is used. This will help maintain 10 megabit data<br />
integrity throughout the wiring system. “Silver Satin” flat cable is out of<br />
specification and should not be used.<br />

Harmonica<br />
<strong>AT</strong>I offers a harmonica adapter, Model <strong>AT</strong>-ADAPT-2. The harmonica-style<br />
adapter shown in Figure 51 allows direct conversion from the 50-pin Telco<br />
connector to RJ45 receptacles. There are many different standards for the pinout<br />
of the harmonica adapter. Ensure that the pin-out of the adapter you use<br />
complies with the 10BASE-T wiring specification. Refer to Table B for the pinout<br />
of the Telco connector for the <strong>AT</strong>-3612T if you order a 10BASE-T<br />
harmonica adapter from a wiring vendor other than <strong>AT</strong>I.<br />
