After all cables have been connected to the module, remove the 
module and rotate it so the front of the module is facing forward. 
Then install the module in its intended location (where the cables 
were pulled through).

To install a 6-pack module

, gently press the module straight into 

the panel opening until the module snaps into place.

To install a 12-pack module

, position the lower edge of the 

module into the panel opening so the edge of the opening rests 
in the slot along the bottom of the module (Figure 10). Then 
gently press the top of the module until the module snaps into 
place.

8

Reinstall the module(s) that you temporarily removed in Step 3.

9

Repeat Step 1 through Step 8 to cable each module for the 
panel.

10

When all modules have been cabled, reinstall the iPatch sensor 
overlay on the front of the panel (Figure 11):

a

Connect the overlay to the panel bus jumper.

b

Position the overlay on the panel so the hooks on the back of 
the overlay fit into the front of the panel.

c

Slide the overlay to the left so the hooks engage with the 
panel and the buttons align with the ports.

Important: 

For 48-port panels, reinstall both iPatch sensor 

overlays.

 Modular Panel includes 

rear cable management. When cabling the panel from the front, 
install the cable support first. When cabling the panel from the rear, 
install the cable support after completing cabling.

To assemble and install the rear cable support:

1

Snap the 4 cable troughs onto the cable support bar.

2

Insert the 4 cable straps into the slots in the cable troughs.

3

Hook the cable support bar onto the rear of the panel as shown 
in Figure 12.

4

Route the cables into the cable troughs. Use the cable straps to 
loosely retain the cables (Figure 13).
