This appendix provides cabling guidelines, cabling configuration diagrams, and port mapping tables.
Warning Only trained and qualified personnel should be allowed to install, replace, or service this equipment.
Cisco used a standard telco color chart when designing the cables for the Cisco 6015 connections. This appendix includes a standard telco color chart.
See Table 2-6 for cable part numbers and specifications.
B.1 Cabling Guidelines
You need to ensure that all Champ connectors are securely fastened (screwed in) and tie wrapped to the connector bracket, as shown in Figure B-1.

B.2 Cabling Configuration Diagrams
You can use third-party POTS splitters in a Cisco 6015 with a POTS splitter configuration. Please verify the compatibility with your Cisco representative.
Note See Table 2-6 for cable and
ferrite requirements. If unshielded cable is used for FCC Class A or EN55022 Class A compliance, the
cables will need to be looped through ferrites.
Figure B-2 shows the cabling between the DSL interface module and a third-party POTS splitter. These connections are for xDSL data flow between the Cisco 6015 and the third-party POTS splitter.
Figure B-2 Connecting the DSL Interface Module to the POTS Splitter
A system configuration using 8xDMTs or 8xDMT over ISDNs requires a POTS splitter that expands the system capacity to 48 subscriber ports.
Figure B-3 shows the cabling between the DSL interface module and two third-party POTS splitters. These connections are for xDSL data flow between the Cisco 6015 and the POTS splitters.

B.3 Port Mapping Tables
Table B-1 maps the Cisco 6015 ports, the POTS splitter ports, and the wire pairs when connecting a Cisco 6015 to two POTS splitters.
Note In a system configuration using quad-port flexi ATU-C line cards (4xflexis), install only one
POTS splitter.
In a system configuration using 8xDMTs or 8xDMT over ISDNs, install an additional POTS
splitter. The additional POTS splitter expands the system capacity to 48 subscriber ports.

B.4 Standard Telco Color Chart
In designing the cables for the Cisco 6015 connections, Cisco used a standard telco color chart. Table B-3 lists the colors that are used for the Cisco 6015 cables.
