Arrange the cable in the standard or extended cable manager to prevent it from
6.
dislodging or developing stress points. Secure the cable so that it is not supporting its
own weight as it hangs to the floor. Place excess cable out of the way in a neatly coiled
loop. Placing fasteners on the loop helps to maintain its shape.
CAUTION: Avoid bending fiber-optic cable beyond its minimum bend
radius. An arc smaller than a few inches in diameter can damage the cable
and cause problems that are difficult to diagnose.
For an FPC3 PIC, loosen the captive screw at the bottom of the PIC faceplate, then
7.
twist the ejector handle at the top of the faceplate counterclockwise to unseat the
PIC.
Slide the PIC out of the FPC card carrier and place it in the electrostatic bag or on the
8.
antistatic mat.
If you are not reinstalling a PIC into the emptied PIC slot within a short time, install a
9.
blank PIC panel over the slot to maintain proper airflow in the FPC card cage.
