Section One: Introduction This guide explains how to install the wall-mounted and Mini enclosures, and how to route and secure the fiber optic cable within the enclosure. 1.1 Tools Required You need the following tools: Marking pen Phillips screwdriver/drill Utility knife Heat gun (optional) Flathead screwdriver (for power plates) 1.2 Additional Parts enclosures recommend the following additional parts that must be ordered separately: Patch plates with adapters Splice sleeves (P/N KIT-SLEEVES) Cable clamp for standard indoor enclosure only (P/N KIT-CLMP-IPL) Fiber pigtails Labels to identify pigtails (masking tape or pre-numbered cable labels) When patching only (no splice), you do not need splice cassettes or pigtails. However, you do need adapter plates to terminate the incoming cable. Refer to Accessories and Ordering Information on page 11 to order additional parts. Fig. 1: 24-Fiber enclosure 1.3 Assemblies Each enclosure consists of a metal chassis with a cam or keyed locking door, cable entry slots, cord grips or grommets, splice cassettes and spools for fiber routing. An optional installation kit (P/N KIT-), found on page 11, includes the following: Cable ties, 4 inches (6) Cable tie mount (4) Velcro cable wraps (6) Splice sleeves (12) 3
Section Two: Installation Please read and understand all instructions before starting installation. If you have questions, contact Amphenol Telect Technical Support at support@telect.com or call 1-509-926-6000. When you receive the equipment, carefully unpack it and compare it to the packaging list. Please report any defective or missing parts to Quality at quality@telect.com or call 1-509-926-6000. is not liable for transit damage. If the product is damaged, please report it the carrier and contact. 2.1 Installing Patch Plates 1. Make sure the latches on the patch plates are pulled out. 2. Insert the patch plate (adapter key way facing up) latches into their mounting holes on the enclosure bulkhead. 3. Push the patch plates until they are flush with the bulkhead. 4. Push in the latches to secure each plate. Adapter Plate Latch Bulkhead Connectors Fig. 2: Patch plate installation 4
2.2 Mounting the Enclosure 1. Place the mounting-hole template against the wall where you want to mount the enclosure. 2. Mark the location of the appropriate template holes on the wall. 3. Install suitable wall anchors (not included). 4. Secure the enclosure to the wall. Fig. 3: Rubber grommet 2.3 Installing the Incoming Cable 1. Score the grommet with a utility knife at the desired cable entry location. Refer to Figs. 3 and 4. 2. Push the cable through the hole that you cut in the grommet. 3. Mark the cable according to the number of wraps you wish to store in the enclosure. Use the tables below to determine where to make the mark. The tables provide the length of incoming cable that can be stored given the number of spool layers in the enclosure. Fig. 4: Rubber grommet at cable entry location Table 1 Patch and Splice Storage Spools (Enclosure and Cassette) Marking Location: Inches Centimeters 1 80 203 ± 2 2 140 356 ± 2 Table 2 Patch Only Storage Spools Marking Location: Inches Centimeters 1.5 70 178 ± 2 2.5 102 259 ± 2 3.5 138 351 ± 2 The number of wraps the cables make within the enclosure is left up to installer preference. For other lengths or paths, use the spools and maintain proper bend radius. 5
4. Slide the grommet up the cable past the mark on the cable jacket. 5. If not already, re-install the rubber grommet into the slot on the enclosure. 2.3.1 Installing the Optional Cable Clamp Kit for Standard Indoor Enclosure 1. Using a Phillips screwdriver, remove two screws from the cable bracket at the top or bottom of the panel. 2. Place the bracket around the cable in the desired location. 3. Re-install the two screws to hold the cable bracket firmly in place. 4. Attach the clamp bracket to the top or bottom of the enclosure, next to the cable entry slot. Fig. 5: Cable bracket Fig. 6: Cable clamp on enclosure 2.3.2 Installing the Incoming Cable in the Outdoor Assembly 1. Loosen compression nut by turning counter clockwise. 2. Insert cable end through the cord grip gland. (Accepts cable dia..435 -.705 in.) 3. Tighten compression nut by turning clockwise. 6

2.4 Using for Patch Only Using the instructions in this section if you are using the enclosure for patch only. 1. From the cable entry end, wrap the fiber strands counter-clockwise around the spools. For bottom cable entry, route the strands clockwise. 2. Attach the connectors to the column of patch plate adapters closest to the back wall of the enclosure. Attach the connectors in order, from top-to-bottom. Use Table 3, Fiber Connection Color Codes, listed below. 3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 for the next group of 12 fiber strands and attach the connectors to the next column of adapters (1-12, top to bottom). NOTE: Always load the patch plates from top to bottom and from the rear of the enclosure to the front of the enclosure. Fig. 8: Patch only fiber routing Refer to the following table for fiber connection color codes. Table 3 Fiber Connection Color Codes For This Connection: Use This Color: 1 Blue 2 Orange 3 Green 4 Brown 5 Gray 6 White 7 Red 8 Black 9 Yellow 10 Purple 11 Pink 12 Aqua 8
2.5 Patch and Splice: Installing Pigtails Use the instructions in this section if you are using the enclosure to patch and splice. 1. Attach the pigtail connectors to the column of patch plate adapters closest to the back wall of the enclosure. Always attach pigtails from top to bottom and from the back wall of the enclosure to the front. Label the pigtails accordingly. 2. Route the pigtails around the spools to take up the amount of desired slack. 3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 for each group of 12 pigtails, then go to the next section. NOTE: The number of wraps that pigtails and incoming cable fibers make within the enclosure and the splice tray is left up to installer preference. Fig. 9: Splicing pigtails 2.6 Patch and Splice: Mounting the Splice Cassette and Finish Skip this section if you are patching only. 1. (Optional): Apply heat-shrink tubing around the jacket cut point. Keep half of the heat-shrink tube length over the cable jacket and the other half over the exposed buffer tubes or fiber strands. See Fig. 7 for an example of the installed cable and panel. If incoming cable is jacketed, unsheathe the fiber optic cable by cutting the outside jacket to an appropriate length for each fiber to be spliced according to splicing machine recommendations. 2. Trim away the excess fiber length but leave enough fiber for splice preparation. Remove the fiber from the splice cassette to the splice station. NOTE: Use this trimmed fiber to measure and trim the length of the bundles remaining five fibers. 3. Remove the desired splice tray. 9
4. Splice the pigtail fiber strand to the appropriate 900µm colored fiber strand from the incoming cable. 5. Repeat step 4 to splice the remaining pigtail fibers to the incoming cable s color-coded fiber strands. Splice the pigtails in order. Refer to Table 3, Fiber Connections Color Codes, on page 8 to follow the color codes. 6. Once the splicing is complete, carefully route the pigtails around the provided storage spools and inside of the splice cassette once or twice counterclockwise. For bottom cable entry, wrap the fiber strands clockwise. Fig. 10: Splice cassette (P/N TTN-11S12) 7. Place the completed splice into the splice holder. 8. Carefully tuck in any stray fiber strands so that they will not be pinched. Replace the cover plate on the splice cassette. 9. Slide the splice cassette onto the threaded post. 10. Secure the cassette with the wing nuts. 11. Use the adhesive designation label to identify each connection. 12. Apply the designation label to the inside of the enclosure door. 13. Close and lock the enclosure. 14. Apply grounding cables/straps to enclosure where necessary. Fig. 11: Splice cassette installation 10
