  Wrap the end of the transition tube with one  

layer of the felt tape provided and secure to 

the bottom of the transition compartment with two of 
the tie wraps provided. (Figure 27)

11.00  ROUTING AND STORING FIBER IN 

THE TRANSITION COMPARTMENT 

11.01

  When routing fiber in the transition compart- 

ment of either size closure for continuous 

loop applications, cut the fibers to be spliced at the 
midpoint of the loop. This allows for splicing in either 
direction. Lay the fibers to be spliced directly through 
the transition compartment exiting the opposite end. 
These fibers will be routed to splice trays 1-4 of the 
6.0" x 22" (15.24 cm x 55.88 cm) and trays 1-8 of 
the 8.5" x 22" (21.59 cm x 55.88 cm) via transport 
tubes. Wrap the continuous loop, and the fibers not 
being spliced, until all fibers are stored in the transi-
tion compartment. For cut cables bring all fibers to be 
spliced directly through the transition compartment 
exiting the opposite end of the same corner 
(Figure 28).

12.01

  Group fibers into bundles determined by how  

many fibers will be inserted into each trans-

port tube. A maximum of six transport tubes can be 
terminated per splice tray.

  Push fibers through the transport tubes.

NOTE: 

 For ribbon fiber application, fiber guide wires 

are provided. Suggested use is four ribbons per 
tube. (Figure 29)
