6.  Install Connector Panels or Modules

The ECL-C4U housing will accommodate up to 

twelve connector panels or modules. They are 

secured to the front of the housing with plastic 

push-pull plunger fasteners. Secure the panels or 

modules to the housing as shown in Figure 5.

7.  Install Cable

7.1  Removing Doors

The front and rear doors may be removed to ease 

installation. To remove rear door, slide it to the left 

to release the hinges. To remove the front door, 

lift the lever arm on the left side of the trough and 

slide the door to the left (Figure 6). Reverse these 

procedures to replace the doors.

7.2  Preparing Cable

WARNING: 

Never look directly into the end of a fiber that may be carrying laser light.

 

Laser light can be invisible and can damage your eyes. Viewing it directly does not cause pain. 

The iris of the eye will not close involuntarily as when viewing a bright light. Consequently, 

serious damage to the retina of the eye is possible. Should accidental eye exposure to laser 

light be suspected, arrange for an eye examination immediately.

WARNING: 

DO NOT use magnifiers in the presence of laser radiation. Diffused laser light 

can cause eye damage if focused with optical instruments. Should accidental eye exposure to 

laser light be suspected, arrange for an eye examination immediately.

CAUTION: 

Cleaved or broken glass fibers are very sharp and can pierce the skin easily. Do 

not let these pieces of fiber stick to your clothing or drop in the work area where they can 

cause injury later. Use tweezers to pick up cleaved or broken pieces of glass fibers and place 

them on a loop of tape kept for that purpose alone. 

Good housekeeping is very important.
