Bridge Clips are small metal pieces used to connect two sides of a 66-block together. Usually PBX ports, Circuits, or POTS lines (telephone lines) on one side with the extended inside wiring on the other side. For instance, when the dial tone provider delivers POTS service on an RJ-21X, they will use bridge clips to deliver the dial tone to the other side of the block. Bridge clips (also called Bridging Clips) are commonly used in the Telecom industry. They serve two purposes. 1. completing a connection between two sides of a 66-block 2. a quick-disconnect device for troubleshooting. Using bridge clips to complete a connection across a 66 block is also sometimes referred to as a Cross-connect As a troubleshooting device, it allows the quick removal of customer-side or inside wiring from the circuit or PBX port. Unfortunately, a decline in the proper use of Bridge Clips makes troubleshooting and MACs (Moves, Adds or Changes) harder to accomplish in a neat and professional manner.
