Optical Cable Management Card (OCMC)
Because fiber optic cables are easily damaged if bent, the NTRE39 Optical
Cable Management Card (OCMC) is installed in Network modules to store
and protect excess cable length. The OCMC card ensures that the fiber cable
is not bent beyond a a 30 mm (1 1/5 in.) bend radius (Figure 98 on
page
235).
The OCMC contains no electronic components and is not powered by the
backplane. This card is used primarily in upgrades where the intergroup cable
distances vary greatly.
OCMC is a single width card installed between the Power supply and slot 1
of a Network module.
