2.1 Overview
The system consists of three parts: Power Injection (PI), the OneReach Cable Assembly (OCA),
and the Remote PoE Port (Remote). The variety of available components allows you to build a
custom system for your exact needs – each is designed to work together for ease of use and a
streamlined installation.
If any of the OneReach components or devices supported by OneReach are or will be
located outdoors or subject to electrical surges, see Sections 3.5, 3.6, and 3.7 for important
grounding and surge suppression information.
2.1.1 Power Injection
Power Injection starts from the Power Injection Chassis or the PI Source on single channel
systems (described later). The rack mountable chassis, located in a local closet, accommodates
the slide-in 4-port Media Modules and injects the power and the data from active networking
equipment into a hybrid fiber optic and copper cable. The power supply is compliant with the
requirements for Class 2 per NFPA 70-2017 when used as part of the OneReach system.
The 4U chassis with rear terminal blocks has a capacity of 12 single-sized slots and accepts
one to three power supplies plus up to six media modules. Each slide-in Media Module supports
four Ethernet ports.
The 2U chassis accepts the same power supplies and media modules, but with a capacity of six
single-sized slots.
Slide-in Power Supply Modules (PSM) provide 400W of power from each AC input and are
equipped with active ventilation. At least one PSM is required, with a second or third PSM
specified when required for additional power. Each PSM will support twelve PoE, eight PoE+
or four HPoE devices. The maximum number of PSMs in any one chassis shall be three. The
screw terminals cannot be used to wire chassis together, nor should other means be used in an
attempt to transfer power between chassis.

The slide-in Media Modules provide various configurations of media conversion for
10/100/1000Mb/s network links to VoIP phones, wireless access points, security cameras, and
other devices. Each media conversion channel includes: rear panel MTP®or LC optical ports,
front panel RJ45 ports for the copper and indicator LED’s for fiber link, and copper link. Blank
filler plates are available for unused module positions.
The single channel systems use the 1-Port Source, mentioned earlier, as both the source and
media converter (see Part 2 Installation Instructions; item D).

2.1.2 Pre-Terminated OneReach Cable Assemblies (OCA)
Pre-Terminated OneReach Cable Assemblies (OCA) provide a common pathway for data
transmission and Class 2 power supply in a single pull installation. The OCA consists of a
Berk-Tek CL3R-OF/PLTC-OF or CL3P-OF/PLTC-OF rated composite copper/fiber cable, within
a single jacket, which includes 12 AWG solid conductors coupled with either tight-buffered
or loose-tube optical fibers. All cables are indoor/outdoor rated to support routing between
telecommunication closets and outdoor locations for IP-cameras, WAPs, emergency call boxes,
and other IP-based devices. Since the cable is listed as CL3R-OF/PLTC-OF or CL3P-OF/PLTC-
OF, it can be installed in the same pathways as other low voltage cables. Bulk cable is also
available for field termination.
Assemblies are built to specific length requirements for each project with pre-terminated fiber
connectors. A power pigtail with a preterminated M8 connector for power on the Remote is field
installed after the cable is pulled in. Assemblies use OM3 or OS1 optical fiber and LC (2 fiber,
4 fiber, or 8 fiber) or MTP®(12 fiber) optical connectors to support single and
multi-port applications.
2.1.3 Remote PoE Ports (Remotes)
Remote PoE Ports (Remotes) are avalable in 1-port, 2-port, and 4-port versions. Remotes are
available to support PoE, PoE+, HPoE and PoE-bt (class 3 and 4) devices with speeds up to 1
Gb/s. IP-based devices with appropriate power requirements may be connected to remote PoE
ports with standard RJ45 terminated patch cords.

Assembly Length
Prior to ordering, use a metered pull tape in the conduit system to ensure that assemblies are
the correct length. Once the length of the conduit is determined, add 1% for measurement error,
plus the additional length needed to reach appropriate rack(s) and create desired service loops.
For example, if the metered tape result shows 500 ft.:
Example Length Calculation
Tape Results 500 ft.
1% for measurement error +5 ft.
Extension past conduit +10 ft.
Service Loops +15 ft.
Total assembly length 530 ft.
3.1 Cable Installation
3.1.1 Ensure that the conduit system size is large enough to accommodate
the cable.
a. OneReach Cable Assemblies follow the same fill-ratio standards as all other
low-voltage cable installations, as defined by NFPA 70, the National Electrical
Code (NEC).
b. The NEC defines the maximum amount of space that the installed cables should
occupy in a given size conduit. A single cable is allowed to occupy up to 53% of the
cross-sectional area (CSA) inside of a conduit. Two cables can occupy 31%. A 40%
maximum fill ratio is mandated for three or more cables.
c. If you do not have ready access to a fill-ratio calculator, the CSA can be manually
calculated by squaring the outside diameter of the cable (inside diameter of the conduit
for conduit CSA), and then multiplying the total by 0.7854.
NOTE: The number 0.7854 is arrived at by dividing πby four (3.1416 ÷ 4 = 0.7854).
d. Add the total of the cable CSA’s together.
e. Divide the total cable CSA by the conduit CSA.
NOTE: The cable’s pulling eye will need to fit into the conduit. Please see the OCA’s
product spec drawing for the pulling eye outer diameter (OD). For example, if the pulling
eye has a 0.8 inch OD, then a Trade Size 1 in. conduit will be needed.
3.1.2 Stage pre-terminated cable at the remote location.
a. The pulling eye will be attached to the top end of the reel.
b. The cable must be placed on an axle that will allow the cable to easily unwind during
the pulling operation.
c. The cable should pull off the top of the reel.

3.1.3 Use pulling eye to pull cable from the remote location enclosure through
the conduit to the closet.
a. The use of a preinstalled pulling rope will facilitate this step.
b. Bend limiting devices (pulleys) must be used in areas where there may be a
sharp bend.
3.1.4 Gently remove the pre-terminated cable end from the reel and its
protective sock.

3.2 Remote Location Installation of the 1-Port, 2-Port, or 4-Port Remote
3.2.1 An appropriately rated NEMA 3 or better enclosure is required in any
location where the remote may come into contact with rain, other liquids,
or be subjected to condensation. Leave about 1 meter (3 ft.) of the pre-
terminated end of the cable inside the NEMA box and pull the opposite
end through to the closet. The cable should be routed in a circle around
inside edge of box, while maintaining the minimum bend radius.
3.2.2 Mount the remote towards the top of the back plate of the enclosure with
four appropriate #8 screws. Unless the remote is to be fastened directly
to grounded metal, place a ground lug under one of the 4 mounting
screws and route to appropriate grounding point via minimum #12
bonding conductor (See section 3.5).

3.3 Hook-up for the 1-Port PI Source
3.3.1 Route hybrid cable to location where the PI Source is to
be mounted.
3.3.2 Mount the PI Source using four appropriate #8 screws to the 1U
mounting bracket. Unless the Source is to be fastened directly to
grounded metal, place a ground lug under one of the 4 mounting screws
and route to appropriate grounding point via minimum #12 bonding
conductor (See section 3.5).
3.3.3 With no power applied to the PI source, attach conductors to the
appropriate terminal one at a time and tighten each terminal screw of
the dual terminal block. Surge Suppression is strongly recommended,
see page 13.

3.4 Closet Installation for the 4-Port PI Media Module
3.4.1 Route cable in the closet to the rear of the Power Injection Chassis,
accounting for proper bend radius. For pre-terminated assemblies, route
excess cable in slack management at the side or rear of the rack.
3.4.2 Terminating the bare end of pigtail assemblies only.
a. Cut cable to appropriate length so there is an extra six feet of cable available. Note
that some surge protectors require additional distance between the cable end and the
chassis/Remote. This may require more cable length to be prepared.
b. Strip back the cable jacket at least one foot and terminate the fibers with appropriate
connectors.
c. With the copper conductors approximately the same length as the fibers, strip about
1/4 inch of insulation from copper conductors. Keep any excess copper conductor, as it
may be needed for use with a surge protector.
3.4.3 Shut off the power to the chassis using the rear switches of all power
supplies in the chassis.
3.4.4 Match the copper conductor to the color identification on the terminal
block. Insert the stripped conductors one at a time, and tighten each
terminal screw.
WARNING: TO AVOID INJURY OR DEATH, Be sure the chassis has all power supplies
shut off before hooking up a cable and that the wire colors match the terminal block
identification.
a. Each screw down terminal has at least a B and W position. Each conductor pair uses
a single terminal block. The table below provides the conductor termination guide;
conductor pairs are shown by row in the below table.
b. Some terminals have a R position; this position is for use with older 4-Port remotes and
their associated OCA, and would have a red conductor terminated to that terminal.
3.4.5 Remove fiber dust caps and clean connector end faces with a fiber
optic microfiber dry cleaner. Plug the LC or MTP®connectors into the
appropriate connectors on the rear of the Media Modules.
3.4.6 Connect the desired network equipment to the RJ45 ports on the front of
the Media Modules to communicate with the remote end devices.
3.4.7 Plug in and turn on all power supplies in the Power Injection Chassis.

3.6 System Grounding
Both the PI source and the remote have internal surge suppression devices, which shunt
common mode power surge power that may be induced in the hybrid cable to ground. Transient
voltage suppression is part of the circuit, but the base plates at both ends of a circuit must
be grounded to facilitate surge voltage protection. Proper installation ensures that the surge
suppression will operate as intended.
The installer must mount the OneReach units such that the base plates are connected to local
ground. This is done by using grounding screws (not supplied) to secure the metal base of the
PI source or remote to a mounting plate connected to an approved ground.
If the PI source or remote cannot be connected directly to a grounded plate, a ground wire with
grounding lug (not supplied) must be used. The ground lug and wire must be installed between
the base plate and the ground screw, and tightened securely. The other end of the ground wire
is connected to an approved earth ground. Use a copper ground wire, minimum 12AWG
(not supplied). Be sure the OneReach system is properly grounded prior to applying power.

3.7 Surge Protection
For all applications where remote devices are outdoors, 48VDC surge protectors are strongly
recommended. Leviton strongly recommends additional surge suppression be added to the
Category cables running to the powered device as well as a high power grounded surge
suppression device be installed at the source end of the hybrid cable. Specific installation
guidelines are dependent on the surge protection device selected and the network design.
See section 3.5 for a reference to a basic OneReach circuit diagram.
