Step 5 Guide the fiber through the cable ties mounted on the sides of the rack. The cable ties affix
the fiber to the side of the rack to reduce the risk of fiber pinching.
Installing the ONS 15305 Electrical Cable
Caution Static electricity can damage electronic equipment. While unpacking and handling
electronic modules, wear a grounding wrist strap to discharge the static buildup.
Grounding wrist straps are designed to prevent equipment damage caused by static
electricity. Before making the necessary interconnections, connect the grounding wrist
strap.
To install electrical connection cables in the ONS 15305, connect the electrical cable with the
corresponding ports of the transmission system. On the ONS 15305 module, the electrical ports are
located at the connector array of the system. Cisco recommends that you label the electrical cable at
each end before installation to avoid confusion with cables that are similar in appearance.
Caution Follow all directions and warning labels when working with electrical cables.
Connecting the Electrical Cables
Step 1 Carefully connect the electrical cables to the customer-specified point.
Step 2 Repeat Step 1 for all other electrical cables.
Step 3 Guide the cables through the cable ties mounted on the sides of the rack. The cable ties are
used to hold the cables to the side of the rack to reduce the risk of fiber pinching.
Warning With LFH cable, avoid sharp edges and excessive bending to protect the cable jacket.
Always fasten the cable connectors with both fixing screws. If the connector is fixed
with one screw only, this screw is likely to break if the cable is pulled by accident.
