Section Three: Installation Considerations
WARNING! Fiber cables transmit invisible infrared light. To avoid eye damage or blindness, never look
directly into fibers or connectors.
CAUTION! These instructions presume you have verified the Amphenol Network Solutions
equipment being installed is compatible with the rest of the system including power, ground, circuit
protection, signal characteristics, equipment from other vendors, and local codes or ordinances.
ALERT! This product must be installed and maintained only by qualified technicians.
ALERT! Install this system according to company requirements. It is recommended you install the
system in a Restricted Access Location (RAL) where access is limited through the use of tool, lock
and key, or other means of security and be controlled by the authority responsible for the location.
ALERT! Prior to chassis installation, ensure there is enough space in front and rear to access
cabling.
ALERT! Only use components and crimping tools approved by agencies or certifying bodies
recognized in your country or region, such as Underwriter’s Laboratories (UL), TIA, etc.

ns.com or call 1-509-926-6000. Keep all documentation that comes with your shipment.
Please read and understand all instructions before starting installation. If you have any questions, contact
Amphenol Network Solutions Technical Support at support@amphenol-ns.com or call 1-509-926-6000.
Exercise care when unpacking and setting the equipment in place. Amphenol Network Solutions is not liable
for transit damage. If the product is damaged, please report it to the carrier and contact Amphenol Network
Solutions Quality at quality@amphenol-ns.com.
3.3 Installation Guidelines
•Elevated Operating Ambient Temperature: If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the
operating ambient temperature of the rack environment may be greater than room ambient. Consider
installing the equipment in an environment compatible with the maximum ambient temperature (Tma)
specified by the manufacturer.
•Mechanical Loading: Avoid uneven mechanical loading in the rack. This can cause hazardous
situations.
•Reliable Earthing: Reliable earthing of rack-mounted equipment should be maintained. Attention
should be given to supply connections other than direct connections to the branch circuit (e.g., use of
power strips).
3.4 Location and Space
C2X chassis, trays and modules require enough space in front and rear for easy access. Leave as much side
clearance for tray and chassis removal and worker access as required by your application or local regulations.
Choose a location in compliance with local operating company requirements.
3.5 Tools and Equipment
The following lists comprises the tools that may be needed to install and maintain the C2X chassis, trays and
modules:
•Phillips head screwdriver with 6" extension

4.2 Front Bezel Positioning and Front Cover
Front bezel is the bracket that holds the front door to protect the fiber, it also holds the yellow cable manager
fingers and the front top cover. Depending on the positioning, it can accommodate and protect different sizes
of fiber cable boots without interfere. Four screws per side define the position of the bezel and there is 0.5”
difference between both positions.
The bezel includes a top cover that can be removed to improve visibility.

4.4 Routing Fiber Cables
Pre-installed cable management fingers route fiber while maintaining proper bend radius.
Fiber should be routed starting with the bottom-most tray or adapter plate into and through the bottom-most
cable management finger. Each tray row has an available cable management finger to route fiber to either
side.
The following installation instructions refer to the C2X 4RU, 3RU and 2RU chassis sizes.
1. With adapter plates or trays already installed in the chassis, route fiber into and through the cable
management fingers. Fiber cables can be routed all to the left, all to the right, or split with one side of the
cables exiting out the left and the other side of the cables exiting out the right.
2. Make sure fiber is fully within and routed through the appropriate cable management finger.

4.5 Cable Clamping
4.5.1 Internal Clamp
The IFC cable is brought in from above or below the C2X panel and mounted to the rear of the panel.
The cable clamp halves contain removable center layers to accommodate various sizes of cable. You can
remove center layers until the correct diameter of IFC cable is met.
NOTE: Cable clamps are specific to chassis sizes. See the table below.

4.5.1.1 Installing on the Chassis
1. Measure the diameter of the incoming IFC cable.
2. If needed, remove and discard leaves from the center of the cable clamp until the correct dimension (the
diameter of the IFC) is obtained.
3. Clamp the remaining bushing halves of the cable clamp around the IFC.
4. Attach the IFC cable and cable clamp to the cable clamp bracket using the three (3) 6-32 x 0.250” screws.
NOTE: Loosely tighten clamp to IFC to allow for adjusting length of cable.
5. Attach bracket to C2X chassis using the two (2) M4-.7 x 8 mm screws, lock washers and nuts.
6. Adjust cable to desired length and tighten down cable clamp to IFC.
NOTE: Overtightening clamp to the IFC can lead to damaging fiber.

4.5.1.2 Cable Clamp Positions
C2X includes 5 internal mounting position:
✓Center Straight
✓Center 45° Left
✓Center 45° Right
✓Right –Horizontal and angled cable exit
✓Left –Horizontal and angled cable exit
Central Positions
C2X provide features to install the cable clamp in the center of the panel and exiting towards the back of the
panel, straight or 45° right or left, for environments that could be space restrictions or interferences with the
cable managers attached to the rack. Cable clamp PN used is for central clamping position is C2X-CLAMP,
which includes a CM module with a solid core that can be peeled off and adaptable to any OD cable from
0.138” to 1.28”
Central clamping position is determined by 3 countersink holes in the panel which are used to attach the clamp
to the chassis:

Cable exit can be configured from the factory or modified in the field, please
note that fibers need to be handled with extreme care and ANS is not
responsible for broken fibers after modifying the clamp position.
From the bottom of the chassis, 3 screws should be removed to release the
clamp and be able to mount it in a different position.
Side Positions
C2X includes provisions to exit the fiber on the sides of the chassis in these 2 positions:

4.5.2 External Clamp
C2 External Clamp mounts directly to C2X chassis. The clamp and bracket assembly can support a variety of
incoming fiber bundles. The fixed diameter solution clamps a .95" +/- .05" breakout or fiber bundle, whereas
the variable diameter clamp can support a cable or fiber bundle up to 1.2" diameter. The clamp and bracket
assemblies exit the chassis 30 degrees from horizon. The assembly is stackable and repeatable from 2RU to
4RU.
Attach clamp to chassis with (4) 6-32 flathead screws on appropriate left or right side of rear chassis. (1) 6-32
flathead screw passes through the bottom of the chassis and clamp bracket and attaches with included acorn
nut. The clamp halves can be opened with a metric Allen wrench to fit and clamp cable securely.
