CAUTION: Recommend the use of safety
glasses (spectacles) conforming to ANSI Z87,
for eye protection from accidental injury when
handling chemicals, cables, or working with
ber. Pieces of glass ber are very sharp and
have the potential to damage the eye.
WARNING: Never look directly into the end of a ber that may be carrying laser light. Laser light
can be invisible and can damage your eyes. Viewing it directly does not cause pain. The iris of the eye
will not close involuntarily as when viewing a bright light. Consequently, serious damage to the retina
of the eye is possible. Should accidental eye exposure to laser light be suspected, arrange for an eye
examination immediately.
WARNING: DO NOT use magniers in the
presence of laser radiation. Diffused laser light
can cause eye damage if focused with optical
instruments. Should accidental eye exposure
to laser light be suspected, arrange for an eye
examination immediately.

4. MOUNT THE HOUSING TO THE RACK
IMPORTANT: If installing in a 23- or 24-in rack, brackets must be
ordered separately and installed prior to mounting the
housing to the rack.
Step 1: Position the housing in the desired location in
the rack.
Step 2: Use two 12-24 x 0.5 Phillips-head screws
(or hardware provided by rack manufacturer)
per side. Recommend two people to install
this, one to hold it and one to insert the screws.
5. HOUSING PREPARATION
• Remove the Front or Rear Doors (to facilitate cable and connector panel install)
Step 1: Open the door by pressing down on the door latch.
Step 2: Slide the door to the left.
Step 3: Slightly bow the door to release the hinges.
• Remove Feed-through Ports (if routing pigtails to a Closet Splice Housing)
Use Phillips-head screwdriver to remove two screws per port.
6. CABLE PREPARATION
IMPORTANT: Pierce entry grommet and slide down cable before accessing.
• Indoor Cables: Access 79 in (2 m)
• Outdoor Cables with 36-inch Fan-Out Kit: Access 56 in (1.4 m)

7. CABLE STRAIN-RELIEF
IMPORTANT: If you are installing outside plant cable or temperature uctuates widely along any part of the
cable, the strength members of the cable must be strain-relieved. Failure to do so may result
in damage to the cable as temperature varies. Other situations only require the cable to be
strain-relieved by sheath retention only.
• Sheath retention strain-relief using the UCC
Step 1: Cut strength member(s) ush with outer jacket
(see note).
Step 2: Follow instructions provided with UCC kit
to secure cable.
Step 3: Attach UCC clamshell to the strain-relief bracket.
Step 4: Determine location of cable entry and attach
strain-relief bracket using two 6-32 wing nuts.
NOTE: If using cable with 900 micron bers and no
subunit jacketing, use about a foot of spiral wrap
to completely cover the bers until they are well
inside the housing. Make sure the spiral wrap
extends up over the cable jacket.
• Sheath retention strain-relief using Cable Ties
Step 1: Cut strength member(s) ush with outer
jacket (see note).
Step 2: Use two cable ties to secure cable
strain-relief bracket.
Step 3: Attach strain-relief bracket to the housing
using two 6-32 wing nuts.
NOTE: You may also use this method inside the housing
by attaching the cable to the feed-through port holes
with two cable ties.
• Strength member strain-relief
Step 1: Install the U-shaped washer and the at washer to
the strain-relief bracket in the order shown using
the 8-32 x 0.5 Phillips-head screw.
Step 2: Place the central member and yarn, if present,
between the U-shaped and at washers.
Step 3: Wrap yarn around the screw in a clockwise
direction under the U-shaped washer.
Step 4: Tighten the screw and trim off the excess yarn.
• Grounding armored cable
Use one HDWR-GRND-KIT per armored cable. Follow
instructions provided with kit to properly ground the cable.
Step 1: Remove the paint from the rack with sand paper to
ensure metal-to-metal contact at the grounding location.

Step 2: Attach the other end of the ground wire from the cable to the rack. The rack must be
grounded to the primary building ground for this to work properly.
OR
Step 2: Attach the other end of the ground wire from the cable to a rack-mount grounding bus.
8. CABLE ROUTING
•
• Installing Indoor Cable with Factory or Field-Installed Connectors
Route ber slack through routing clips after installing connectors
if needed..
IMPORTANT: Ensure there is enough slack to allow the panel to
be removed from the front.
• Installing Cable with a Buffer Tube Fan-Out (BTF) Kit
Step 1: Install BTF onto cable.
Step 2: Slide the fan-out body into the cut-out in
the ber shelf.
Step 3: Secure the fan-out body to the ber shelf
with a cable tie.
Step 4: Route ber slack through the routing clips.
• Installing Pigtailed Panels/Modules
Step 1: Mark ends of pigtails to identify
which panel they are coming from.
Step 2: If installing a pigtailed module,
remove the ber shelf with a
Phillips-head screwdriver.
Step 3: Feed pigtail through appropriate
feed-through slot and into a splice housing
(CSH-05U-F) mounted above or below.
9. COMPLETE INSTALLATION
Step 1: Reinstall any doors that were removed earlier.
Step 2: Close both front and rear doors.
Step 3: Record ber identication on the 12 x 12 position label
in a logical way and attach to the slide-out label plate.
CAUTION: Fiber optic cable is sensitive to excessive pulling, bending, and crushing forces. Consult the
cable specication sheet for the cable you are installing. Do not bend the cable more sharply than the minimum
recommended bend radius. Do not apply more pulling force to the cable than specied. Do not crush the cable
or allow it to kink. Doing so may cause damage that can alter the transmission characteristics of the cable; the
cable may have to be replaced.
