Installing the FST
The FST should be installed 50 mm above the fiber guide. If additional
equipment is installed above the FST, like another XDM-300 shelf, an
additional 50 mm must be left free between the FST and such equipment.
To install the FST in the rack:
1. Attach the FST to the rack rails and secure it using the four supplied
screws, washers, and nuts.
2. Prepare the necessary fibers according to the site cabling diagram and the
detailed cabling diagrams or tables of each shelf. When preparing the fiber,
refer to the safety information in Work and Equipment Safety (on page
2-20 ).
3. Label the cables in accordance with the cabling diagrams or tables.
4. Thread the optical fibers into the conduits running along the front supports
of the ETSI A rack, or the rack sidewalls of an ETSI B rack.
5. Push the button on the front panel of the FST to release the latch, and pull
the FST towards you to open it.
