A telecommunications wiring system reliably provides fast configuration and reconfiguration of user telecommunications devices within a localized telecommunications network. A series of piping assemblies creates a network of pair appearances in multiple. Then, hard-wired pair selectors, extractors, are used to connect at least one preselected signal from the piping assembly to the telecommunications device. Since only several of the many signal paths are permanently spliced within the connector of the extractor, only those several paths provide a continuous path for transmission. Whenever the position of a telecommunications device needs to be changed within the network, the extractor associated with the telecommunications device is unplugged from the piping assembly to accompany the telecommunications device to its new location. Then, to complete the reconfiguration of the telecommunications device within the network, the accompanying extractor simply plugs into the piping assembly at the new location and the telecommunications device is plugged once again into the same extractor; thereby, the same, preselected paths are once again utilized. Methodology of providing easily relocatable and reconfigurable telecommunications local system connections between a local termination facility and user telecommunications devices is described accordingly.
