    110 Punch Down to RJ-45 Connector

    If I'm reading this right you're talking about a patch cable used to cross-connect from a 110-style termination block to a 8-position, 8-conductor modular port (aka RJ-45). If so you only need to request a 110 to RJ-45 patch cable from any distributor, they'll know what you're talking about...

Have them meet you (at the same time) to discuss a design-build project. Work out enough details at the meeting so that all contractors are bidding...

    DS3 Coax Loopback

    I've been out of the field for awhile, but every DS3 I've done was coax. Usually brought in on fiber to an OCx Mux and dropped to DS3 level for transmission via 75 Ohm coax. Loopbacks were normally programmed at the edge devices. So here's my question(s): 1.Is the hard loop (which is in fact...

    Conduit Fill With Stubs

    If I'm reading this correctly, we're discussing a piece of EMT installed through a drop-ceiling tile for the express purpose of making the install aesthetically pleasing.
