Installing Cables and Loading Splice Trays
4.1 Overview
Facility cables originate in other equipment, inside or outside of the building. Facility cables come
in from the top and are routed into the areas on the left and right of the splice tray stacks.
For purposes of cable routing within the cabinet, the cabinet divides into left and right sections.
The 24 tray cabinet has four sections: top right, top left, bottom right, and bottom left. The 12 tray
cabinet has left and right only.
shows the 24 tray cabinet top left and top right routing, which are the same
except that they are mirror images of one another. Bottom left and bottom right are routed in the
same way as top right and top left, except they are lower in the cabinet.
Typically each splice tray is loaded outside the cabinet on a work surface such as a table, then
the tray is returned to the cabinet and the cables are routed as shown.
Facility cables must be broken out to the dimensions indicated in
. This
may be done for all cables at the same time, before loading splice trays, or it may be done for the
associated cable as each splice tray is loaded.
Breakout kits are required for facility cables. The recommended RIBCBOUT kits are described in
TC-96271-IP (see
).
