Do not remove protective caps from any of the connectors until instructed to do so.

Ground the Fiber CAP L (Optional)

Follow the steps below to ground the OPA only if grounding is required in your locality or if the installation
plans require the CAP L be grounded. The different CAP L installation procedures will tell you when to ground
the CAP L.
The CAP L is equipped with an M6 grounding stud located on the back of the unit; however, grounding is
not necessary. CAP Ls are classified as low-voltage devices and do not have internal power supplies.
CommScope recommends checking your local and national electrical codes to determine if grounding is
a requirement.
Do the following to ground a Fiber CAP L.
Obtain a length of #18 AWG (1.00 mm) insulated stranded copper wire for use as a chassis-grounding
1
wire.
Terminate one end of the wire with a ring terminal.
2
Locate the chassis-ground stud at the rear of the enclosure.
