Dear Jim,
When you terminate 25-pair cable onto a modular (RJ-45) patch panel, you just assume that the first 4 pairs stand for port #1 and numbered as usual.
Then pairs 5-8 are going to port #2 and pair 5 becomes pair 1 (pins 4-5) and so on.
Then pairs 9-12 are going to port #3 and 9th becomes #1.
The whole thing should be repeated 6 times.
After you've done with all the first 24 pairs, and you've tested everything, cut 25th (violet-slate) pair off.
To make the job easier, I can adivise you to print out both schemes on a color printer and have them both in front of your eyes when you do terminations.
Have a good luck with your installation!
Sincerely,
Dmitri Abaimov, RCDD
