Abstract

The present integrated DSLAM to POTS splitter connector comprises a first set of wires each having a first end terminating in a first 50-pin connector for connecting to the DSLAM and second end terminating in a 64-pin connector for connecting to a first POTS splitter, one of the wires terminates in a first DPM; a second set of wires each having a first end terminating in a second 50-pin connector for connecting to the DSLAM, a second end terminating in a 64-pin connector for connecting to a second POTS splitter, one of the wires terminates in the first DPM and another in a second DPM; and a third set of wires each having a first end terminating in a third 50-pin connector for connecting to the DSLAM, a second end terminating in a 64-pin connector for connecting to a third POTS splitter, one of the wires terminates in second DPM.

Claims (20)

1. An integrated DSLAM to POTS splitter connector comprising:

a first set of wires each having a first end terminating in a first 50-pin amphenol connector for connecting to said DSLAM, said wires each having a second end terminating in a 64-pin amphenol connector for connecting to a first POTS splitter, wherein one of said wires terminates in a first DPM;

a second set of wires each having a first end terminating in a second 50-pin amphenol connector for connecting to said DSLAM, said wires each having a second end terminating in a 64-pin amphenol connector for connecting to a second POTS splitter, wherein one of said wires terminates in said first DPM and another one of said wires terminates in a second DPM; and

a third set of wires each having a first end terminating in a third 50-pin amphenol connector for connecting to said DSLAM, said wires each having a second end terminating in a 64-pin amphenol connector for connecting to a third POTS splitter, wherein one of said wires terminates in said second DPM.

2. The integrated DSLAM to POTS splitter connector of claim 1 wherein said DSLAM comprises:

a plurality of line interface modules.

3. The integrated DSLAM to POTS splitter connector of claim 2 wherein each of said plurality of line interface modules comprises:

a first port and a second port.

4. The integrated DSLAM to POTS splitter connector of claim 2 wherein a portion of said second set of wires are further split into a first portion and a second portion of said second set of wires, at least one of said first portion and said second portion connecting to the same line interface module.

5. The integrated DSLAM to POTS splitter connector of claim 3 , wherein at least one of said first portion and said second portion of said second set of wires connect to a different line interface module.

6. An integrated DSLAM to POTS splitter connector comprising:

a first set of wires each having a first end terminating in a first 50-pin amphenol connector for connecting to said DSLAM, said wires each having a second end terminating in a 50-pin amphenol connector for connecting to a first POTS splitter, wherein one of said wires terminates in a first DPM;

a second set of wires each having a first end terminating in a second 50-pin amphenol connector for connecting to said DSLAM, said wires each having a second end terminating in a 50-pin amphenol connector for connecting to a second POTS splitter, wherein one of said wires terminates in said first DPM and another one of said wires terminates in a second DPM; and

a third set of wires each having a first end terminating in a third 50-pin amphenol connector for connecting to said DSLAM, said wires each having a second end terminating in a 50-pin amphenol connector for connecting to a third POTS splitter, wherein one of said wires terminates in said second DPM.

7. The integrated DSLAM to POTS splitter connector of claim 6 wherein said DSLAM comprises:

a plurality of line interface modules.

8. The integrated DSLAM to POTS splitter connector of claim 7 wherein each of said plurality of line interface modules comprises:

a first port and a second port.

9. The integrated DSLAM to POTS splitter connector of claim 7 wherein a portion of said second set of wires are further split into a first portion and a second portion of said second set of wires, at least one of said first portion and said second portion connecting to the same line interface module.

10. The integrated DSLAM to POTS splitter connector of claim 8 , wherein at least one of said first portion and said second portion of said second set of wires connect to a different line interface module.
