Securing the Cable 

To secure the incoming fiber optic cable to the back of the shelf and rack: 
1.  Insert a cable tie retainer (provided) up through the hole in the cable support on the rear of the shelf on the 

side opposite from where the cable enters the shelf (Figure 13). For example, if the cable enters the shelf on 

the right side, use the hole on the left side of the cable support. 

Note:

  Two cable tie retainers are provided for your convenience. 

2.  Insert a cable tie (provided) through the cable tie retainer and secure the incoming fiber optic cable to the 

cable support. 

Important

:  Do not tighten the cable tie completely. For a sliding shelf, leave enough slack so that the cable 

moves freely when you slide the shelf out from the rack. 

3.  Secure the incoming fiber optic cable to the back of the rack approximately 7 inches (about 18cm) above the 

shelf (Figure 13). 

4.  If the shelf is a sliding shelf, slide the shelf out of the rack and back in, making sure that it slides freely and 

the panel bus jumper does not bind. 

Note

:  The ribbon cable of the panel bus jumper may slide in the corrugated tubing. 

Checking the Panel Bus Jumper 

1.  Make sure that the panel bus jumper is still firmly connected to the faceplate (Figure 13). 

Important

:  The connector is keyed. The polarized tab on the panel connector fits into the opening in the 

header connector on the back of the faceplate.
