Installing Pigtail Adapter Pack Assemblies and Splice Trays
This section describes how to install pigtail adapter pack assemblies and splice trays in an
empty panel or as an addition in a termination/splice panel where some of the adapter pack
positions were left vacant at installation. Either stranded or ribbon pigtails may be installed.
The 1RU panel accepts up to two adapter packs pigtail assemblies. The 2RU panel accepts up to
four assemblies.
Use the following procedure.
1. Install the pigtail adapter packs from the front side of the panel as described in
, threading through the pigtails to the rear side of the adapter bulkhead.
Note:
As a rule of thumb, begin with the lowest number positions in the adapter bulkhead
(top right of bulkhead when viewed from the back of the panel) and route to the lowest
splice tray in the stack; however, when splicing ribbon adapter packs, not all of the splice
trays will be required and the lowest splice tray can be used for slack, if desired. Refer to
. As shown, pigtails from the right side of the adapter bulkhead (when viewed from
the back of the panel) should be mounted around to the left in a counterclockwise direction,
pigtails from the left side of the adapter bulkhead should be routed around to the right in a
clockwise direction.
