OMX Splice Cabinet Density Using Ribbon Cables
This application for the OMX Splice Cabinet utilizes 48-fibers (4x12 fibers per ribbon) per
splice wheel arrangement for a total cabinet capacity of 5,184 splices. This would be using six
864-fiber OSP cables as input to the splice trays, and twenty seven 192-fiber IFC cables or
eighteen 288-fiber IFC cables as output from the splice trays, within one OMX Splice Cabinet.
The splice wheel count would be:
• 120 trays total in the OMX Splice cabinet to hold splice wheels - 60 right verticals and 60
left verticals.
• 108 splice wheels to be used for the 5,184 fiber application – 54 right verticals and 54 left
verticals.
With six splice trays not being used in each vertical (six on each side), room is available to
secure the large fiber count blocking kits within the OMX Splice Cabinet. By using splice tray
position #13 as the starting point for the splice wheels, ample room is available for two 864-
Ribbon Fiber Central Tube Blocking Kits to be mounted at the top of the frame with a minimum
of 7 inches from the base of the two Blocking Kits to the first splice wheel.
Use the following procedure to install the ribbon cables:
1. Corrugated tubing installation: Remove OMX Vertical Management hardware from inside
center of cabinet marking on back wall of cabinet the position they came from to aid in
reinstallation later. Refer to
.
