Cable Routing and Management
Figure 1-34 Routing fiber-optic cables on the optical-card faceplate
Faceplate connector
Procedure: Route Fiber-Optic Cables in the Shelf Assembly
Step 1
Open the fold-down front door on the cable-management tray.
Step 2
Route the cable on the card faceplate through the fiber clip on the faceplate.
GBICs do not have fiber clips; therefore, if you are routing optical cable from an E1000-2-G or E1000-2
card, skip to Step 3.
Step 3
Route the cables into the cable-management tray.
Step 4
Route the cables out either side of the cable-management tray through the cutouts on each side of the
shelf assembly. Use the reversible fiber guides to route cables out the desired side.
Step 5
Close the fold-down front door when all cables in the front compartment are properly routed.
