Abstract
A method of arranging outside plant facilities associated with a telephone office is disclosed, in which serving terminals that connect to respective telephone station sets are designated as the originating equipment rather than the telephone office, thereby greatly simplifying the inventory of such facilities. As a result of such simplification, the outside loop assignment of a drop wire is then determined dynamically at the serving terminal.
