4.1. (Preferred Method) Mounting an Empty Housing from the Front of the Rack The mounting brackets are factory-installed for a 5-inch projection of the housing from the front of the rack. If a 3-inch projection is desired, skip to Section 4.1.1. If a flush-mount projection is desired, skip to Section 4.1.2.
Step 3: relocate the bracket to the front of the housing (Figure 5). align the screws with the mounting hole locations shown and reinstall the bracket. Step 4: Pull the sliding tray out to the detent position so that jumper routing guides project in front of the rack uprights.
Step 5: reattach the mounting brackets using a Phillips-head screwdriver (Figure 7). Step 6: Set the open-ended slot on the bottom of the mounting brackets onto the installed screws. (The mounting brackets will support the weight of the housing.) Step 7: Tighten the installed screws and insert one more screw per side into the center Front...

Please refer to the cable manufacturer’s recommended procedures and cable access techniques while accessing the cable. Follow all required safety procedures. Visit Corning Cable Systems website at www.corning.com/cablesystems for videos on accessing indoor, outdoor,and indoor/outdoor cables. 5.2.1 Ground Armored Cable If the cable is armored, secure cable in the external strain-relief assembly.
5.3. Performing Sheath Retention It is only necessary to use one of the following methods for sheath retention. • External Strain-relief - Section 5.3.1 • Internal Strain-relief - Section 5.3.2 • On rear Door - Section 5.3.3 • Through rear Door - Section 5.3.4 5.3.1 To External Strain-relief Assembly The external strain-relief assembly is factory-configured for the following cable entry locations: •...
Step 4: Strain-relieve cable to the strain-relief arm by using two cable ties to secure the cable to the assembly. Ensure that the cable ties are seated correctly in the provided slots. noTe: alternatively, a universal Cable Clamp (uCC) may be attached to the strain-relief arm to hold the cable as shown in Figure 13.
5.3.3 on the Rear Door TPA-4027 Figure 15 Cable may be strain-relieved to the lances on the inside of the rear door after reinstalling the shelf (Figure 15). Secure the cables at several locations on rear door with cable ties. 5.3.4 Through the Rear Door If cable enters from directly behind the housing, it is possible to strain-relieve through the rear door.
5.4. Installing Adapter Panels replace blank panels (Figure 17) with adapter panels applicable for the connectors being used. 5.5. Terminating Fiber Terminate the fiber in accordance with company policies and manufacturer’s recommendations. TPA-3988 Figure 17 5.6. Routing Fiber The procedure for routing all cable types is the same, unless cable enters the housing through the rear door.
Loose-Tube Cable • Strain-relieve the buffer tube by inserting the buffer tube fan-out body into the transitional strain-relief holder as seen above until it snaps into place. • If the cable enters the housing from the right side (as seen from the rear of the housing), route the cable so that the jacketed cable is on the left and the 900-micron fibers exit on the right side of the transitional holder.
5.7. Mating Connectors in Adapters Step 1: remove dust caps from connectors and adapters. Step 2: Clean connectors and adapters with the appropriate tools and materials for the connector type according to manufacturer’s directions and standard company practices. Step 3: Mate connectors into adapters, usually beginning from right to left as seen from the rear.
INSTALLING CASSETTES 6.1. Installing Two Cassettes refer to the Corning Cable Systems Standard recommended Procedure 003-895 for complete instructions on preparing a splice cassette using ribbon fiber or loose tube cable. It is not necessary to remove the sliding tray to install cassettes into the housing.

Step 1: as seen in Figure 21, open the front and rear doors. Step 2: Slide the covers apart to remove them from the housing. Step 3: remove the following parts from the housing a. remove all the slack management clips by rotating them 180-degrees either direction, then lifting them out of the sliding tray.
6.2. Installing One Cassette and One Adapter Panel TPA-3998 Figure 22 Step 1: Follow Steps 1 through 3b in Section 6.1. Step 2: remove both blank panels, then remove panel clips on the left side by pulling the clip away from the panel clip holders and sliding the clips towards the front of the housing.
ROuTING JuMPERS (PATCH CORDS) Step 1: Open front door to access adapter panels. Step 2: remove dust caps from the connectors and adapters into which they will be mated. Clean the connector end faces and adapters per standard company practices and insert the connectors into the adapters.
