Position the back splice tray on the Splice

just beyond the tie down holes. (Figure 25)
FIGURE 25 - MARK THE BUFFER TUBES
12.04
Remove the buffer tube to the mark and
thoroughly clean the fibers per standard
company practices.
12.05
Apply a wrap of blue felt over the buffer tube
at the end where they will be tied down.
12.06
Position the buffer tubes onto the splice tray
so that they extend 1/4" (6.35 mm) past the
tie down holes and apply provided tie wraps as
shown in Figure 26 A & B.
PLP TIP:
For easy tie wrap installation, insert the
tie wrap with the ridges on the inside of the loop,
with the head opposite the notch in the splice
