The present invention relates to an arrangement and to a method for reconnecting conductors (1, 21) connected to a telecommunications equipment (4, 27). According to the invention, a breaking function (15, 24) ensures that a cross-connect (17, 28) is connected between the conductor and the telecommunications equipment when a reconnection is desired. The reconnection is effected by remote control in the cross-connect (17, 28). The reconnection of the conductor connection is effected between two routine visits at a plant where manual reconnection of the conductor is possible. When manual reconnection of the conductor (1, 21) has been effected, the breaking function (15, 24) ensures that the cross-connect (17, 28) is disengaged and the cross-connect resource appropriated in reconnecting the conductor connection is released. the invention obviates the need to make separate visits to a telecommunications node in order to reconnect conductor connections manually. The invention also enables the use of relatively small cross-connects for reconnecting conductor connections by remote control, since the cross-connects (17, 28) only needs to handle those reconnections that are required between two routine visits to the node. |
