• the table “Position of each FP cable bundle on right-side extended
cable brackets” (page 252)
• the table “Position of each FP cable bundle on left-side extended
cable brackets” (page 253)
• the figure “Mini-coax cables bundled onto extended brackets”
(page 254)
Slot 8 is omitted from the tables because it is intended to house an OC or
STM card. OC or STM fiber cables are routed to the left side of the frame.
To understand logical card positioning, refer to “Choosing slots for FPs”
(page 61).
4 Fasten the cable bundle to the bracket by
• looping the tie-wrap around behind the cable
• sliding the loop down past the tabs into the space around the bracket
finger
• connecting the tie-wrap ends and pulling the tail until the loop holds
the bundle snugly (though not tightly) against the finger
5 Use tie-wraps to snugly fasten the remainder of the cable bundle to
whatever cable support routes the cables to the termination panel.
6 Label the FP cable bundle on the bracket that is nearest the cable
management channel. Put the label on the flat surface nearest the bundle.
Identify the FP’s slot number and the termination panel ports that this FP
is connected to. For terminations to a sparing panel, see also assigning
sparing panel connections for a 12-port DS3 or E3 FP in 241-1501-200
