INSTALLATION
1. Use appropriate mounting hardware to install base
on desired surface as shown in Fig. 1, 3/4” plywood is recommended. (Tip: PANDUIT lettering
should be upright.)
2. Route cables through the slots in the base as
shown in Fig. 2.
3. Cable jacket end should be within 1/2” from where
cable pairs are inserted. Cable pairs must remain
twisted up to the point of connection for Category 6
installation.
Note: When using 4-pair cable, high density
bases must be wired from the center out to
each side, as shown in Fig. 3a.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
CABLE REQUIREMENT: Terminates most 22-26 AWG solid or stranded
IWC wire with a .050” (1.27mm) max. o.d., either PVC or Plenum rated.
4. Inspect cable pair color placement prior to using
either a GPST single wire punchdown tool or
GPDTM multi-pair punchdown tool to seat and cut
the pairs to length.
Note: When using a single wire punchdown
tool to insert and cut wires, the HIGH impact
setting should be used.
5. Position the connecting block over the wired base.
6. Secure the connecting block in place using the
GPDTM multi-pair punchdown tool. It is important
to keep the tool perpendicular to the base to
ensure a good termination.
7. Once the connecting blocks have been seated,
cross-connect wires can be terminated to the top
of the connecting blocks or G
cords can be installed. If cross-connecting,
reference Fig. 3b.
Note: Optional retaining cap can be installed at
this time.

1. GIGA-PUNCH™ product terminates most 22-26 AWG solid or stranded IWC wire with a .050” (1.27mm) max. o.d., either PVC or Plenum rated.
2. Never install wire into a slot previously used for a larger gauge.
3. Be careful to strip back cable jacket only as required for termination.
4. Use care to maintain pair twists up to the termination strip.
5. When stripping cable jacket, be careful not to cut the insulation on the individual wires.
6. Avoid sharp bends when routing cable.
As with all Wiring Accessories, the following statements apply:
1. Never install communications wiring during a lightning storm.
2. Never install communications wiring in wet locations unless the product is specifically designed for use in wet locations.
3. Never touch uninsulated communications wiring or terminals unless the communication line has been disconnected at the network interface.
