UNPACKING THE PRODUCT

Unpack and inspect the LSX  panel as follows:

1. Inspect the exterior of the shipping container for evidence of rough handling that may have 

damaged the contents of the container.

2. Unpack the panel and associated components and check for possible damage.

3. If damage is detected or if parts are missing, file a claim with the commercial carrier and

 

then notify CommScope Customer Service. Save the damaged carton for inspection by the 
carrier.

4. Save the shipping container for use in case the equipment requires shipment at a future 

date.

INSTALLATION

The main steps in installing an LSX  panel are: 

• Mounting the panel on the frame, 

• Breaking out the cable to be spliced within the panel, 

• Installing the cable on the outside of the panel, and

• Routing the cable within the panel from the cable clamp to the splice deck. 

For instructions, refer to the following subsections.

5.1

Installing the Combination Module

Install the panel from the front side of the rack, using the following procedure. Refer to

 

Figure 7

.

Note: 

For information on how to contact CommScope Customer Service, if needed, refer 

to 

Section 8

 in this manual.

Note: 

Because of its extra depth due to its rear splice area, the LSX  panel should be 

installed on an LGX fiber distribution frame with a depth of at least 15 inches (38.1 cm).
