Splice feeder to splitter/point to point module Organizer Tubes from feeder cable are routed in the outside slots [A]. Tubes from branch cables are routed in the inside slots [B] as shown on picture below. Pigtails from the modules in the top cover are routed in slot [C]. There is a possibility to route fibers from the first tray to the second and vice versa trough special designed slots in the tower. -
Page 10: End Cut
End cut Take out 1 tube before storing the loop under the basket and cut the feeder tube at 1 end (right side). Put a mark on the tube in the marking area (250 area) and strip tube to this point (10 -11cm from jacket end). Bring feeder fibers to the tray where the fibers from the connectors are stored and make fusion splice. -
