The front cable management system (see Figure 18 on page 31) consists of a row of nine
semicircular plastic bobbins mounted on the front of the router below the FPC card cage.
The PIC cables pass between the bobbins and into the tray, keeping the cables organized
and securely in place. The curvature of the bobbins also helps maintain the proper bend
radius for optical PIC cables.
You can pull the front cable management system up and outward to lock it into the
maintenance position. This allows you to access the lower fan tray and the front air filter.

NOTE: The rear cable management system is not needed for standalone
T1600 routers with T1600-SIBs and T-CBs.
For T1600 routers connected to a TX Matrix Plus router, you can use the rear cable
management system to organize, support, and provide strain relief for the fiber-optic
array cables connected to the TXP-T1600 SIBs, and the cables connected to the LCC-CBs.
The cables are routed to the left side of the T1600 router, and then toward the top of
the chassis, where you can route the cables to the TX Matrix Plus router. The cable
management system adds 9.5 in (24.1 cm) to the depth of the T1600 chassis, and 2.4 in
(6.2 cm) to the left side of the chassis.
See the TX Matrix Plus Router Hardware Guide for instructions on installing and using the
T1600 rear cable management system.
