7. Installing Cassettes
Step 1:
Starting in the lower right corner of the housing as viewed from the rear (Figure 8),
install the first cassette.
Step 2:
Continue installing cassettes across the first row, then move to the next row,
beginning again in the right corner. Strain-relieve cable sheath with cable tie as
shown.
Step 3:
Repeat Step 2 until all cassettes have been installed.
Step 4:
If not already done, loosely install a hook-and-loop strap through the lance in the
baseplate to organize and secure the fiber subunits as a single uniform bundle. Make
sure to leave enough slack to allow the tray to be pulled out without stressing or
exceeding the minimum bend radius of the cable.
