Cable Slack Managers
General
The cable slack managers (Figure 2-17) are raised floor units that are
used for cable distribution and cable slack storage between the switch
cabinets and the cross-connect field. They can also accommodate a
limited amount of slack in station cables. Power cables from the switch
cabinets are also run through/from the cable slack managers.
Note: Cable slack managers are not required when the switch
cabinet is installed on a raised computer floor. The station cables
and the cables from the switch cabinets are routed under the
computer flooring to the cross-connect field.
The cable slack managers have tabs and interlocks that allow adjacent
cable slack managers to interlock together. Retainers mounted on
columns inside the cable slack managers keep the cables from
protruding above the top of the base. The cable slack managers are
coded as housings and two types are available.
