Fibers need to be installed onsite. Before
installing the fibers, you must install cable clips
at the specified positions, as shown in the
following figure.
Do not look or stare into optical fibers directly without eye protection.
Ensure that the radius of a fiber bend is 50 mm
or larger. Fibers must be routed and bundled
properly but not over-tightly. After installing
fibers, insert plugs in optical interfaces without
fiber connections and cap the fibers not
connected to optical interfaces.

7 Installing and Routing Fibers to a CRPC Frame
When fibers splice through the E2000-E2000
connector on the ODF, purchase an E2000
ODF box for fiber routing and installation. For
details, see the
E2000-ODF BOX Installation
Guide
.
6 Installing and Routing Fibers Between Subracks
1.
The LINE port on the
TN12RAU1/TN12RAU2 board
has an interlock switch. You
must perform the procedure in
the figures on the right to insert
or remove fibers.
2.
Fibers cannot be inserted or
removed when the cover of the
interlock switch is closed.
Use the tool on the board panel to
open the cover of an interlock switch.
Insert fibers and close the
cover.
CAUTION
Winding pipe
When connecting fibers between boards
on the left and right sides of a subrack,
route the fibers under the protective plate
below the XCH. When the slot for the
XCH is inserted with an adaptive frame
to house an optical-layer board, route
fibers to the board above the protective
plate.
