    General The small Internal Fiber Distribution Hub (IFDH) is part of the Corning Cable Systems’ OptiTect® Indoor Local Convergence Cabinet, CE-series. It serves as an interface between a telecommunication provider’s network and individual customer connections. The cabinet provides mechanical and environmental protection for the splices and connector interfaces while providing easy access for the service provider.

    Figure 2 Installing the Cabinet Mount the Cabinet on a Wall For standard installation of the IFDH on a wall, secure a 1.2 m by 2.5 m by 19 mm (4 ft by 8 ft by 0.75 inch) sheet of plywood to the studs of the wall in the mounting location, with the top edge of the plywood approximately 2 m (6 ft) above the oor (Figure 3), at the height speci ed in your standard local procedures.
  • Page 6: Mount The Cabinet On A Strut

    Step 1: Insert appropriate hardware, such as #10 by 0.75-inch screws (not provided), into the plywood. Ensure the hardware is level with each other. Step 2: Using a hoist or lifting device, lift the cabinet and slide the keyholes in the pre-installed wallmount brackets over the screws.
  • Page 7: Accessing The Cabinet

    Accessing the cabinet If the cabinet door is closed and locked, use a 216B tool or can wrench to open the latch. To facilitate work operations inside the cabinet, the exterior door may be removed. Step 1: Remove ground strap at the bottom of the door by removing the two nuts securing the ground lug to the door.

    Install Braided Tubing Figure 9 NOTE: Add 3 inches to the sub-unit length for a 288-/432- ber cabinet. For loose tube cables, the bu er tube length equals the sub-unit length. Figure 10 Standard Recommended Procedure 003-903 | Issue 6 | October 2018 | Page 10 of 21...
  • Page 11 Figure 11 NOTE: Add 12 inches to the sub-unit length for a 288-/432- ber cabinet. For loose tube cables, the bu er tube length equals the sub-unit length. Step 1: Cut the braided tubing to 1.5 m (60 inches). Refer to Table 3 and (Figure 9) to verify the number of braided tubes required, the lengths, and routing con gurations for your cabinet.
  • Page 12 Step 4: Slide tubing toward the cable sheath (Figure 14). • Hold the tube as shown. • Compress the tubing. • Move the compressed length up the rod toward the cable sheath. • Repeat the procedure until the rod appears out the end of the tubing.
  • Page 13 Step 7: Gently remove the extra slack by sliding your hand down the braided tube (Figure 17). Figure 17 Step 8: Secure the other end of the braided tubing (Figure 18). • Cut o the plastic rod. • Wrap electrical tape around the end of the braided tubing.
  • Page 14: Installing Unconnectorized Output Cable Into The Direct Drop Housing

    Installing Unconnectorized Output Cable into the Direct Drop Housing Step 1: Strip 3 m (118 inches) of jacket sheath from the output cable. Refer to Standard Recommended Procedure (SRP) 003-784 provided with the Braided Tubing Kit for detailed instructions regarding output cable jacket stripping.
  • Page 15 Input cable will route to the bottom splice tray and the output cable will route to the subsequent trays above in preparation for splicing (Figure 20). Pigtails from the adapter panel and/or splitter inputs have been pre-routed and stored in the splice housing. To gain access to the bottom splice tray, loosen the hook-and-loop strap and remove the top trays.
  • Page 16: Installing Splitter Modules

    Step 5: Return and route the bers within the splice tray, securing the splice point within the organizer and routing slack around the organizer and within the interior of the tray (Figure 22). Step 6: Reinstall the splice tray cover ensuring the tray cover is captured beneath the retaining tabs at the ends of the tray.

    Splitter modules are installed into the splitter storage area. Preconnectorized output bers from the splitter modules can be mated in the output eld or routed to and stored in the connector parking eld for mating later. Step 1: Remove splitter modules from their packaging. Step 2: Open splitter area cover;...

    Step 4: Remove the connector dust cap. Clean the connector end-face using a dry process, such as with a cleaning cassette per your company’s cleaning procedures. Mate the connector into the port. Step 5: Record the connector information on the label provided on the front door in the input section of the label.
