Set of Six 110LBLHLDR $2.95 Minimum Order is $15. Please refer to Minimum Order before proceeding to check-out. Add Express Charge? Canadian customers, please make sure to add Shipping to Canada. |
These are the same label holders include in
the 110 Block Wiring Hub Kit. These seem to be prone to
disappearing when they are removed to install new cables, but
a block is much easier to work with if it is properly
labeled. If you have a block with missing label holders or
just want some spares, you can order them here.Sold in sets of six.  The holders
include the paper strips for hand written labeling, but if
you have MS Excel, you can download a four-pair 110 label
template here and print neat labels like those shown in
this photo
(Just cut them with a paper cutter or scissors). Right click
on the button below, select "Save target as...", and save the
template file to a location of your choice. Ship Wt = 0.3 lbs |

Snap-on Cover for 66 Block |
|
66 Block Cover CVR-66-TCV $1.55 This cover must be ordered with a 66 Block Wiring Hub Kit. |
|
This translucent cover snaps over the front
of a 66 block, much like the clear cover below. It is not
"clear as glass", but it does just as good a job of
protecting the connections from shorts. Please only order this cover if your order includes at least one 66 Block Wiring Hub Kit. However, you may order more covers than block kits. If you aren't ordering a block kit and need a cover for a block you already own or want a cover you can see through clearly, please order the clear cover below. Ship Wt = 0.2 lbs |

|
66 Block Cover CVR-66-MC4 $2.95 Minimum Order is $15. Please refer to Minimum Order before proceeding to check-out. Add Express Charge? Canadian customers, please make sure to add Shipping to Canada. |
|
This clear cover (MC4) snaps over the front
of a 66 block and helps protect the connections from shorts.
This cover is completely transparent and allows visual
inspection of the wire connections on the block without
removing the cover. If you mount your block in a fairly well
protected location, you probably won't really need a cover.
However, this cover will also give your installation a more
"finished" appearance. If you mount your block in a location
where it is likely to be subject to objects coming in contact
with the block, I would definitely recommend you add a
cover. I know this picture is not very useful - hopefully the description will help. I'm a phone tech, not a photographer. Taking pictures of something made of clear plastic is a skill that I have not developed! I tried to take a picture of the cover displayed on a block, but you couldn't see it! Ship Wt = 0.4 lbs |

Designation Strips for 66 Blocks |
for 66 Block Set of Two 66DESI-X02 $1.15 Minimum Order is $15. Please refer to Minimum Order before proceeding to check-out. Add Express Charge? Canadian customers, please make sure to add Shipping to Canada. |
 These plastic
strips snap over the "comb" on each side of a 66 block and
provide an even surface that can be used to label the pair or
cable positions with a pencil, pen, or printed label. There
are lines on the strips to separate each pair position. Please note, designation strips and snap on covers CANNOT be used at the same time. Sold in sets of two. Ship Wt = 0.3 lbs |

Most installation will not require more than
the eight bridge clips included in the 66 block Wiring Hub
Kit. If your particular installation requires more, you can
order them here.

For years people have asked me for jumper wire, but changed their mind when I told them the cost of spools holding one thousand feet of wire. They wanted the "done by a professional" look of real cross-connect wire, but didn't want to buy 1000 feet of wire and use less than 100 feet. They decided to accept a "Do-It-Yourself" substitute, by foregoing real jumper wire and going through the trouble of stripping wire pairs from lengths of cable to use instead of real jumper wire. Now you don't have to make that compromise!  If you want a full 1000 ft spool, you're welcome to order that also, but you'll never need that much for a residential job. |

MINI-PATCH $45.95 Add Express Charge? Canadian customers, please make sure to add Shipping to Canada. Need patch cords? Check the next item! |
 This site is
intended to provide help with phone wiring, but many people
installing their own phone cable are also installing their
own LAN cables and want a method to terminate them that is
less expensive than a fancy rack mount patch panel. This
Mini Patch Panel is the perfect solution. It provides an
inexpensive method of terminating 12 four-pair cables and
patching to a hub or router. It is suitable for 10BaseT or
100BaseT Ethernet. The Mini Patch Panel will be a Suttle 2-7034-12 or equivalent. The panel is mounted on an 89D mounting bracket (included). That means the panel will mount in the same space that a 66M150 block would occupy. The front of the panel has twelve 8P8C jacks (8P8C jacks are commonly referred to as RJ-45.) The back of the panel has twelve 110 type IDC clips for termination of four-pair cables. Cables can be terminated to EIA/TIA 568A or 568B standard by following the color code labeling on the panel. 
This panel can also be used to terminate phone cables that
need to be patched to a small key-system or PBX.Punchdown tools for connecting wires on a 110 clips can be purchased or rented here. You can view Suttle's instruction for the 2-7034-12 at: http://www.suttlesoho.com/catalog/pdfs/2-7034-12_inst.pdf. This document shows the correct pinning for the connections to the jacks.

If you are ordering the Mini Patch Panel, you're probably
going to need some of these. They are ideal for patching
from a 66 Patch Block to a hub or router mounted along side.
You might as well get them here!

These are the "Crimp Splice" connectors
described at Routing of Your Phone Cable - Splices, Taps, and
Junction Blocks (3M Scotch-lok connectors or similar by
different manufacturer.) As illustrated on that page, these
connectors can be used to splice on cable to extend to new
locations. They can also be used to connect a pair for
second line thru an outdoor splitter enclosure as illustrated
at Installing
the DSL Splitter Near the NID. There are special crimp pliers available for these connectors, but crimp splice connectors can also be closed with standard "slip-joint" pliers. UY connectors are two-wire splices and UR connectors are three-wire splices. The wires are simply inserted in the UY or UR connector (without stripping) and the connector is closed to complete the connection. UB "tap" connectors splice a new wire to an existing wire, without cutting the existing wire. UB connectors are a newer version of the old UG tap connector, but they work the same way. The existing wire goes in a slot on one side of the UB connector and the new wire goes in a hole on one end. Just make sure that the original wire is correctly aligned in the slot before crimping. UB connectors are a little more "tricky" to learn to use than simple UY or UR connectors, but once you master getting the wires in place, UB connectors are ideal for adding to an existing installation. |

Hard Wire Junction Box with Modular Plug 742A50-BOX $5.45 Minimum Order is $15. Please refer to Minimum Order before proceeding to check-out. Add Express Charge? Canadian customers, please make sure to add Shipping to Canada. |
This junction box provides an easy means to
connect four 4-wire cables to a modular jack. This junction
box will make it easy to connect up to four existing voice
cables to the voice jack on a Indoor DSL Splitter.
This box is easier to use than the Screw Terminal Indoor Connecting Block
because the modular plug at the end of the attached 12 inch
cord will connect directly to the voice jack on the splitter
and the cables to the jacks can be connected without removing
the insulation from each individual wire. However, if you
only have two or three inside wiring cables, you can save a
few dollars by using the Screw Terminal Indoor Connecting
Block instead. If you have up to four inside
wiring cables that you need to splice together, this box is a
good solution. However, if you have more than four cables,
you'll need to use a different device, such as a 66 or 110
block. Don't try putting multiple wires in the wire slots in
the terminals on this box; the teeth of the terminals might
spread and not make a reliable connection. Note: The box provides color coded connections for the second voice pair, but be aware that most splitters (including those sold here) do not connect the second pair thru the splitter. To support a second line, the second pair from the NID would need to connect to one of the available internal terminals, leaving three for connection to jacks. Ship Wt = 0.4 lbs |

Connecting Block 42A50-BLCK $2.95 Minimum OrderMinimum Order is $15. Please refer to Minimum Order before proceeding to check-out. Add Express Charge? Canadian customers, please make sure to add Shipping to Canada. |
 This small screw
terminal connecting block is very useful for splicing 4-pair
cables at an indoor location. If you have two or three
inside wiring cables that you need to splice together for
connection to an Indoor DSL Splitter,
this is the least expensive solution. However, if you have
more than three cables, it will be easier to use a 66 or 110
block than trying to deal with the "spider web" of wires that
would be created by trying to use a screw terminal connecting
block.The screw terminal connecting block has a separate base and cover. The base has four threaded brass seats for the screws with washers. The cover attaches to the base with a "captive" screw at the center of the cover. Ship Wt = 0.4 lbs |

TII-163-EN $4.95 Minimum Order is $15. Please refer to Minimum Order before proceeding to check-out. Add Express Charge? Canadian customers, please make sure to add Shipping to Canada. |
 This Outdoor Wiring Terminals
Enclosure is a TII model 163-01. It is an environmentally
protected two-pair wire terminal closure with terminal studs
to support binding/splicing two pairs from multiple telephone
cables at an outdoor location. This terminal enclosure can
be very useful if you need to make a splice to extend one or
more old cables from a point where they previously entered
the home to a new NID/splitter location. This box is an
ideal junction for use near the land line NID location if you
plan to use VoIP and have several cables that need to be
spliced to provide continuity from the VoIP Adapter to all of
the cables in the house.The TII 163 is 4.18"H x 3.25"W x 1.87"D. View detailed info on this product at http://www.tiinettech.com/datasheets/Wire_Terminals/163_Series.pdf.pdf. Ship Wt = 0.7 lbs |
