At the appropriate TXP/MXP card, plug a fiber-optic cable into the TX port of the DWDM connector.
Step 1
As needed, route slack fiber-optic cable around the round cable retainers in the fiber-storage tray
Step 2

be equal to or greater than the minimum radius that is recommended in your site specifications. As you
route each cable through the fiber-storage tray, make sure that adequate cable slack remains.
On the DWDM (front) side of the patch panel, plug the other end of the cable into the connector on the
