completed during the site planning process.
3. Route the fiber optic cables, that have been designated for ports 0 through 15 on the
top shelf TFIO blades located in chassis slots 0 through 3, through the chassis left
vertical cable trough. The cables are then run up to the top horizontal cable trough
and down to the TFIO ports.
4. Route the fiber optic cables, that have been designated for ports 0 through 15 on the
top shelf TFIO blades located in chassis slots 4 through 7, through the chassis right
vertical cable trough. The cables are then run up to the top horizontal cable trough
and down to the TFIO ports.
5. Route the fiber optic cables, that have been designated for ports 0 through 15 on the
bottom shelf TFIO blades located in chassis slots 0 through 3, through the chassis
left vertical cable trough. The cables are then run up to the middle horizontal cable
trough and down to the TFIO ports.
6. Route the fiber optic cables, that have been designated for ports 0 through 15 on the
