ADDING PATHWAY MODULES

Additional cable capacity can be gained by installing Pathway Modules 

(EZD444MBS or EZD444MBS2) through unused slots in multi-slot grids. 

To add module, remove Firestop Filler Panel by removing panel clips as 

well as spacer bar clamping bolts and panel strap. Remove spacer bar. 

Install module (Fig 17) and reinstall spacer bar per instructions above.

INSTALLING OR PULLING CABLES

A resilient liner provides an adjustable seal within the pathway device. 

Liner must be protected from damage while adding or removing cables. 

Wrap  cable  ends  with  a  suitable  low  friction  tape  before  inserting 

into the pathway. Where cable lubricants are used, low solids, water-

based products are recommended. This device is designed to be fully 

functional at all cable loadings from completely empty to visually filled, 

and cables should easily slide through the pathway using minimal effort. 

IF  RESISTANCE  IS  ENCOUNTERED,  DO  NOT  FORCE  CABLES 

OR  CABLE  BUNDLES  THROUGH  THE  PATHWAY.  DAMAGE  MAY 

RESULT. Upper curved liner may be depressed when inserting cables, 

if necessary, using a flat, smooth implement and then removing it after 

cables are installed.  The rectangular shape of the loading area coupled 

with gentle pressure exerted by resilient liners will naturally distribute the 

cables at a relatively uniform height across the width of the device.  The 

use of a cable dressing/combing instrument to straighten and organize 

cables may help to maximize usable space within the pathway device. 

SUPPORTING CABLES

Allow slack where cables flow through pathways by providing support for 

cables above and below the floor. Cable support system should orient 

cables so that the flow is vertical through the center of the pathways.
