latches and pull out the drawer.
Insert the adapters. SC adapters are inserted with the guide tracks to the
right, FC adapters with the guide tracks to the left. LC adapters are inserted
with the lock to the right. All seen from the front.
Mount a splice holder in the two mid holes as shown in drawing 6.2. It is fixed
with rivets through the two holes in the middle of the holder.
Fasten the cable to the two foremost punched out mounts and to the lower

wraps. Any excess cable must be
handled outside of the panel.
The adapter plate may be lifted up and turned to give easier access to the
adapters on the inside. See ch. 4.3.
Clean the adapters. If the pigtails are more than 1.5 m long, they should be
cut to this length. Clean the connectors and insert them in the adapters.
Attach splice protectors and splice the first 12 fibres, put the fibres in the fibre
guide crosses as shown in drawing 5.4 and place the splice protectors in the
splice holders. Fibre nr. 1 to 12 (according to front labelling) in track 1 to 12 in
the splice holder. Follow the colour coding.
Put the second splice holder on top of the first (clipped on, turned 180°
compared to the first). Splice and place the next 12 fibres, fibre 13 to 24 in
track 1 to 12 of the splice holder. Continue in the same way with the rest of
the splice holders.
Close the fibre guides
(see picture 3.2.1).
