3.6.1 Fiber Drop Cable Route
The outer enclosure offers several alternatives for fiber installation. These include:
• Corning Optitap
TM
connection (ordered separately).
• Pre-connectorised drop cable.
• Drop cable and field splice or field connectorisation.
For other drop cable types, route the fiber through a riser conduit. You can then terminated it at the bulk head adapter. In
all cases, route the tie-wraps through the bottom of the ONT enclosure.
Use the following steps to route the fiber drop cable:
1. Thread the fiber pigtail through the molded guide.
2. Remove the dust cover and attach it to the connector.
3. Make sure there are no bends in the fiber of less than 30mm (1.2 inches) radius or 60mm (~2.5 inches). When the main-
tenance door is closed it should not come in contact with the fiber. The fiber slack management loop in the ONT mold-
ing allows up 10 feet of 3mm patch cord or similar size cable to be dressed and secured.
Caution: Use caution when routing wires and cables. Avoid severe bending and routing over sharp edges.
Use grommet material when possible to avoid wear on cable insulation.
