3.0 Cassette/Cable Installation (without FLEX-ZRFEDCG Partition Walls):
1. Remove hook n loop from patch panels. Retain this as you will use it
in the installation process.
2. Lift one patch panel upwards with handle and tilt forward. (See
Figure 6).
3. Install HD Flex 12-port cassettes into patch panel starting at the
bottom-most slots and working upwards. To install cassettes, insert
into the slots from the rear as shown and push forward until they
snap into place. Note the polarity label of
EACH
cassette and orient
properly as needed. (See Figure 7).
NOTE:
The enclosure patch panels are set up by default for use with
12-port cassettes. (See Figures 37 through 39 for installation of 4-port
and 6-port rails for use with 4-port and 6-port cassettes).

:
a. Route fiber bundle of 72 fibers cable through brushes in adjacent
opening. Loop fiber bundle of 72 fiber cables around 4 cable
managers and secure with hook-n-loop. (See Figure 9).
4. Repeat the process until all desired slots are filled with cassettes.
NOTE:
if installing 4-port or 6-port cassettes, populate the entire row
from right to left before moving to the next row above.
NOTE:
If installing an MPO Fiber Adapter (FAP), first attach cabling to
the rear of the FAP. This will make for an easier installation. (See Fig-
ures 31 though 33 for wiring FAPs).
