1.14.1 Optical Cable Management

Optical cables connect to the SC connectors which are located on the faceplate of the optical cards and
on GBICs. Route optical cables down through the fiber management clips on the optical card faceplate
(shown in Figure 1-34) or, if the optical cables are connected to GBICs, route them down through the
jumper routing fins (Ethernet cards do not have fiber management clips).
Route optical cables into the cable management area of the shelf assembly, through a cutout in the
nearest side of the assembly, and onto the side of the assembly. A hinged panel on the front of the shelf
assembly folds down to provide access to the cable-management tray.
