Admonishments
Important safety admonishments are used throughout this manual to warn of possible hazards to
persons or equipment. An admonishment identifies a possible hazard and then explains what
may happen if the hazard is not avoided. These warnings are flagged by use of the triangular
alert icon (seen below) and are listed in descending order of severity of injury or damage and
likelihood of occurrence.
1 DESCRIPTION
The TrueNet 1U and 2U Panels can accommodate up to 48 and 96 terminations, respectively.
The TrueNet 1U and 2U Panels can be configured for termination and splice or termination only
(without splice trays). Figure 1 shows the external features of a typical 1U panel.

Danger: Danger is used to indicate the presence of a hazard that will cause severe personal
injury, death, or substantial property damage if the hazard is not avoided.
Warning: Warning is used to indicate the presence of a hazard that can cause severe personal
injury, death, or substantial property damage if the hazard is not avoided.
Caution: Caution is used to indicate the presence of a hazard that will or can cause minor
personal injury or property damage if the hazard is not avoided.

Typically, these panels ship empty (without adapter packs, MPO cassettes, splice trays, or
pigtails), but they may also be ordered with any of these components already installed.The panel
accommodates adapter packs and MPO cassettes. The 1U termination and splice panel has one
splice tray. The 2U termination and splice panel has two splice trays. Figure 2 shows the
external features of a 2U panel.

2.1 Selecting a Mounting Bracket Option
The 1U and 2U panels are shipped with mounting brackets configured for a 19-inch EIA/
WECO rack with a 5-inch recess. The mounting brackets can also be reconfigured for a 4-inch
rack recess. Figure 3 shows the available mounting options for both panels.
Figure 3. Selecting a Mounting Bracket Option
Warning: Never install equipment in a wet location or during a lightning storm. When
installing or modifying communication lines, disconnect lines at the network interface before
working with uninsulated lines or terminals.

2.4 Sliding the Drawer In and Out
The panel has a tray release button and tray retainer clips designed to ensure that the drawer is
opened carefully and remains open until work in the drawer is competed. These items look the
same and operate the same on the 1U and 2U panels.
Use the following procedure to slide the drawer in and out (2U shown):
1. To release a closed drawer, press the release button down, as shown in Figure 6, and slide
the drawer out to the first detent.
2. To free the drawer to open it fully, press in the retainer clips (one on each side) located as
shown in Figure 7. Slide the drawer out until it locks into place.
3. To release an open drawer to close it, release the retainer clips (one on each side) located
as shown in Figure 8. Slide the drawer in until it locks into the closed position.

2.5 Grounding the Panel
Each panel has two grounding locations marked with the standard grounding symbol. These
locations are on the rear cover and right side of the panel (see Figure 9). Use M4 hardware
(customer supplied) to attach at the grounding location a 2-hole lug terminal such as shown in
Figure 10.

2.6 Installing Adapter Packs
The 1U panel accommodates two adapter packs. The 2U accommodates four adapter packs.
Adapter packs are installed in the same manner for both 1U and 2U panels. Adapter packs
installed on left side of panel are angled left while adapter packs installed on right side are
angled right. Install the adapter packs as shown in Figure 11 (2U shown).

2.7 Installing MPO Cassettes
The 1U panel accommodates two MPO cassettes, the 2U accommodates four. The procedure for
the 1U and 2U is the same. To install or remove an MPO cassette, pull the Nylatch plunger
fastener out, orienting the MPO as shown in Figure 12.

3 CABLE CLAMP INSTALLATION
3.1 Installing a Cable Clamp for OSP Cable
For both termination and splice panels and termination only panels, an OSP cable must be
installed and routed. The procedure is the same regardless of the type of panel being installed.
The OSP cable can enter the panel from the left or right side of the panel (as viewed from the
rear of the panel).
Determine the direction of cable entrance and install the cable clamp as shown in the example in
Figure 13.

3.2 Installing a Cable Clamp for MPO Trunk Cable
For panels with MPO adapter packs, an MPO trunk cable must be installed and routed. The
procedure is the same regardless of the type of panel being installed.
The MPO trunk cable can enter the panel from the left or right side of the panel (as viewed from
the rear of the panel).
Determine the direction of cable entrance and install the cable clamp. Some orientation
examples are shown in Figure 14.
Figure 14. Cable Clamp Assembly for MPO Trunk Cable
Note: This procedure requires use of the MPO trunk cable clamp kit, which can be
ordered from ADC using catalog # TFP-ACC002. This kit is required for routing MPO
trunk cable in panels with MPO adapter packs. This kit may also be used for routing MPO
trunk cable in panels with MPO cassettes, but the kit is not required for MPO cassette
applications.
Note: When the MPO trunk cable clamp kit is used, there are limitations on the number of
panels that can be stacked up on the rack in certain configurations. For more information,
refer to the instructions (ADCP-92-080) provided with the kit.

4 CABLE ROUTING PROCEDURES
4.1 Termination and Splice Panel Procedures
4.1.1 Routing Pigtails
Typically, the termination and splice panel is shipped without adapter packs or pigtails and will
therefore need to be configured as required. Alternatively, the panel may have been ordered with
adapter packs pre-cabled with pigtails or with MPO cassettes already installed. If pigtails need
to be routed in the panel being installed, route the pigtails corresponding to the example shown
in Figure 15 for a right side adapter pack or Figure 16 for a left side adapter pack.
