Cleareld’s StreetSmart Pre-Assigned FDH PON Cabinet provides an interconnect

environment from the feeder network through the passive optical splitter to the

distribution network.

Designed for rapid PON Network deployments, these cabinets provide a single

distribution point to deploy FTTH in large scale MDU’s, urban or dense neighbor-

hoods. Pre-Assigned WaveSmart High Density 1 x 32 Splitters are loaded into the

cabinet with a pre-terminated ber tail, making installation and deployment very

cost and time effective.

Description

The StreetSmart Pre-Assigned FDH PON Cabinet provides a turn-key solution for up to 288 distribution bers for an outside

plant FTTx PON application. WaveSmart High Density 1 x 32 Splitters are installed and pre-assigned into Cleareld’s 12

pack SC/APC module adapters, allowing the service provider to instantly turn-up revenue-generating circuits.

The StreetSmart 288 PON Cabinet incorporates a cross-cut roof designed to shed water and includes a roof/solar shield

and a reusable/replaceable venting feature, providing additional protection for deployed ber. The outer shell of the cabinet

is replaceable, allowing the cabinet to be repaired if damaged. Mounting options include pad, pole or vault mounted with

either a 6” or 12” riser.

Pole Mount Installation

1. Locate the hoist plate and install, using the included hardware, to the top of the cabinet on the side that will be

closest to the pole.

2. Locate the toothed bracket that has the mounting holes in the ange and mount it to the cabinet (below the previously

installed hoist plate) using the included hardware.

3. Determine the top height of the cabinet. Drill a 5/8” hole 8 inches below the anticipated height of the cabinet, all the way

through the pole.

Note: Cleareld does not provide the mounting hardware. Required hardware includes a 5/8” threaded rod (3” longer than

pole diameter), washers, lock washers, nuts and Lock Tight (red).

Note: 288 PON FSC cabinet shown for reference. Pre-Terminated FDH cabinet will be mounted to the pole using the same

method.

4. Mount the loose toothed bracket to the pole using

threaded rod, washers avnd nuts on either side of

the pole. Rod length will depend on the diameter of

the pole. It is suggested to add 3” to the diameter

of pole for rod length.

Note: Cleareld does not recommend using lag bolts to mount cabinet to pole. Cleareld recommends using hardware with

a minimum of 5/8” diameter. Care should be taken to avoid over-tightening and deforming the hoist plate. Lock tight (red)

should be used on nuts to prevent loosening of nuts. Make sure the thread rod/nut does not exceed the top bend in bracket

or it will interfere with cabinet.

5. Lower the cabinet onto the pole mounted toothed

bracket until the hoist plate is over the ange of the

toothed bracket.

Inspect Then Connect

These are Cleareld recommended products/applications. Use the product

you feel will complete your cleaning procedures. Create a “best practice” for

your company and follow those procedures.

The use of Chemtronics end face and bulkhead cleaning products and

techniques ensures a clean end face, no matter the type of contamination.

Before cleaning any connector, be sure you know what type of contaminate

you are cleaning (dry, uidic, or combination). All the available products are

good, it’s the process that you need to be aware of. Using a dry cleaning

method to clean “dirt” can lead to scratching of the end face. Learn the

process of cleaning properly.

Note: It is NOT recommended to use isopropyl alcohol to clean the end face.

Cleaning an SC/LC Connector

Cleaning the End Face

• Place one wiping paper on QbE-2 FiberSafe™ Cleaning Platen.

(Figure 1)

• Apply small amount of precision cleaner (about 1” in diameter) with

Electro-Wash MX pen on to one end of the wipe. (Figure 2)

• Hold end face at a 90 degree angle. For APC connection, adjust by

slightly tilting the container or end face. Angle is correct when no drag is

felt on the end face. (Figure 3)

• Draw end face from wet to dry part of the wipe 3 times. Use just enough

pressure to ensure complete contact between end face and the wipe.

Note: DO NOT retrace previous step.

Connector Cleaning Procedure

Whether factory terminated or eld spliced, clean connectors are essential for proper system operation. Even the smallest

dust particle can cause transmission problems, so for optimal network performance inspect, and if necessary, clean

connectors and adapters prior to mating.

Cleaning the Ferrule

• Lightly moisten the ber optic swab (2.5mm/38542F or 1.25mm/38040)

by spotting a small amount (about 1”) of Electro-Wash PX or

Electro-Wash MX pen onto the QbE. Hold the swab, 1 side down to the

wetted area and hold for a count of 1-2-3-4-5. (Figure 4)

Figure 5

Figure 6

Cleaning the Mate Through an Adapter AND the Adapter Itself

• Lightly moisten the ber optic swab (2.5mm/38542F or 1.25mm/38040)

by spotting a small amount (about 1”) of Electro-Wash PX or

Electro-Wash MX pen onto the QbE. Hold the tip of the swab onto the

wetted area and hold for a count of 1-2-3-4-5.

• Insert the swab into the adapter to the connector, press lightly against

the connector, twist 2-3 times, remove and discard.

• Dry with a second dry swab.

• Inspect, repeat cleaning if necessary, and test for signal strength.

• Use additional swabs to clean inside the actual adapter. Moisten

swab, like above, and insert through hole and remove while twisting.

(Figure 6)

• Insert swab into side of ferrule, wet side to the ceramic ferrule and

circle around 2-3 times and remove. Turn swab to dry side and repeat.

Male Connector

• Use of Chemtronics MTP Connector Cleaning Swabs (CC505F) is rec-

ommended. Even after cleaning with a probe cleaner, you should always

clean the pins with this (or an equivalent) type swab. Cleans ALL MTP/

MPO connector end faces. This swab also cleans the “pins” of the male

connector

• Lightly “spot” a QbE-2 wipe on the platen with Electro-Wash PX Fiber

Optic Cleaner, the FiberWash or MX Pen.

• Lightly touch short side of the MTP/MPO Connector Swab to the wetted

area (3-5 secs) to absorb some cleaning solution (DO NOT over saturate

the swab).

• Wipe connector areas to be cleaned, sliding pad from bottom of pad

across and forward to tip of swab, from 1 side to the other, turn over and

use long side to dry in same movement.

• Use the hole on end of pad to

clean one alignment pin, then

press the end of the swab

into the other pin to clean.

• Check your work with a ber

scope. This can take several

attempts to get the endface

clean.

Female Connector (without pins)

• Cleaned like a single ber connector, using a cleaning platform. The

receptacles will be cleaned as long as you are using a combination clean-

ing process as recommended.

• Again, using a platen, moisten the platen with cleaning solvent on one

end to accommodate 3 swipes of the MPO female endface.

• Holding the connector (If APC, slightly at an angle to accommodate for 8°

angle) swiping with medium pressure, from the wet area into the dry area

3 times, without wiping over previous area.

• Inspect, and if clean, make the connection. If NOT, repeat above steps

until clean or if determined that the end face is damaged (based on stan-

dards of 5 cleanings per connection), replace.

Cleaning Using a Probe-Style Cleaning Tool

• The probe style cleaning tools are capable of cleaning a connector end face separately or through the adapter.

• Slightly engage probe by pulling back but do not allow to click. Lightly “spot” a QbE-2 wipe on the platen with Elec-

tro-Wash PX Fiber Optic Cleaner, this will help alleviate “over saturation” of the material.

• Lightly touch the tip of probe and release.
