User Manual
Advanced Distribution Frame (ADF) Systems
1.2.1 ADF XIs
ADF Cross-Connect/Interconnect bays are used in either cross-connect or interconnect applications,
depending on the type of module installed on the Main ADFs. Lineup access to the patch cord area on the
Main ADFs is through either the bottom or upper troughs with access to/from patch cord storage on the ISPs
via the bottom trough.
Two models are available:
1. The North American model is based on a 26" by 24" Main ADF footprint. ISPs for the North American model
are 12" by 24".
2. The ETSI model is based on a 600 mm by 600 mm Main ADF footprint. ISPs for the ETSI model are 300
mm by 600 mm.
The following figures show a few typical cross-connection and interconnection schemes between IFC and
network element (NE) cabling. In these examples, IFC routing to the rear of the IFC ADF modules is from the
facilities cable (ladder) rack with NE cabling through a cable management system (CMS).
