Manual 009246 REV J - Feb 2020

Optional Top Cable Entrance Ports

If this option is used, the cabinet is typically drilled at the factory 

and sent to the customer with watertight plugs installed to maintain 

cabinet’s environmental integrity.

If additional cables need to be added to the top entrance holes:

1. 

Remove the wing nut and washer from inside the cabinet

2. 

Carefully remove the grey sealing plug from the hole

3.  Install 1” NPT sealing plug and correct size cable grommet, 

tighten to cabinet

4. 

Install cable through grommet/plug and into cabinet

Note:

 Midspanning of cable cannot be done using the top entry 

ports.

If the cabinet does not have factory drilled holes, the following can 

be done to field install to the cable entrance ports:

1.  Locate the “dimples” on the top of the cabinet (there are 6 on 

the 288 PON, 432 PON and 432 Cross-Connect cabinets - the 

cabinets that can be pole mounted).

2.  Carefully drill a 1.365 inch hole, using the dimples as a         

centering point.

3.  De-burr the hole, being careful not to scratch/damage the    

painted surface.

4.  Install 1” NPT sealing plug into the hole and tighten.

5.  Install cable as mentioned above.

Note: 

Midspanning of cable cannot be done using top entry ports.
