Repeat Section 5.4.1 and 5.4.2 for the other cable to be installed in the express
port, if applicable.

When the closure only has one cable installed in either

purchased separately) to fill the unused port.
Step 1
If using a dummy plug follow instructions
in Section 5.4.2 to install sealing paste and
tape to dummy plug.
Step 2
Install dummy plug with the closed end of
the plug flush against the outside of the
end cap (Figure 16).

cap half by inserting the strain-relief bracket in the tracks.
Step 3
Place the other side of the express cable sheath on the taped end cap half
