Overview
Housing
The SG1000 optical node is furnished in an aluminum housing that protects the electronics from
weather and dissipates internally generated heat.
Figure 2-1 illustrates the SG1000 housing:

Coaxial cable connections to the housing are made with conventional 5/8 inch - 24-thread,
stinger-type connectors. For strand mounting, two clamps are located at the top of the housing
and are secured with 5/16 inch – 18-thread stainless steel bolts.
Housing Lid
A spring-release tab is located on the hinge side of the lower housing half as illustrated in
Figure 2-1. It prevents sideways motion of the lid on the hinge pin when the node is open. You
can remove the lid without tools by pressing down on the release tab and sliding the lid to the
left.
Mounting Holes
Two threaded holes, separated by 9.96 inches center-to-center, are located in the back of the
housing on the horizontal center-line as illustrated in Figure 4-1. You can use these holes and
the bolts from the strand clamps for pedestal mounting. These holes are threaded to a depth of
0.55 inches.
Port Locations
The housing provides five cable connections (three RF ports and two optical-fiber ports). All
ports are protected by factory-inserted threaded plugs or plastic cap plugs. Discard these plugs
when you install the cable connectors.
