Figure 3 - Main ADF (Typical, Front View with Tray Modules)
Main ADFs, such as the Main ADF XI in Figure 3, above, consist of a central cable storage area
with mounting rails for the fiber tray modules. The routing area contains several types of spools
for directing and redirecting patch cords and pigtail interconnects.
Interconnect and cross-connect cabling differs somewhat between the Main ADF XI and IC bays:
• Main ADF XI - Interconnection and cross-connection cabling to the inboard patch areas is
provided by either upper and/or lower cable troughs. Drops in the troughs ensure cable bend
radius control. Junctions are provided for coupling the upper and lower troughs to other Main
ADFs or InterBay Storage Panels in the lineup.
• Main ADF IC (Specialized for Interconnections) - Interconnect cabling to the inboard patch
area is by direct access from a cable management system above the ADF lineup. Junctions
