There are two methods: Extend across sheet and highway.

To extend across sheet route a fiber from a component/connector port and stop at a point, right click and terminate.  Select Extend Across Sheet command from the Modify menu, pick the end of the wire, select which sheet to extend to, left mouse to start a new fiber, and continue to destination.  You can set this up with a cross sheet graphic at the ends of the wire to show wire information

You can create a highway that wires can attach at a point and then exit at a point simplifying the route across a single sheet.

Thanks,
