User Manual
Advanced Distribution Frame (ADF) Systems
Three types of modules are available, depending on application:
1.
The IntraFacility Cable (IFC) module contains a breakout area of routing standard 900 micron fiber cabling
from a rear-side clamp holding the riser cable. The 900 micron fibers are routed to optical adapters
in the trays.
2. The Network Element (NE) module contains raceways for routing standard 2mm network element cabling
to the adapters.
3.
The Fan-Out (FO) module accommodates up to 12 different multi-fiber cable clamp positions.
Individual trays swing toward the inboard area of the Main ADF to simplify the cabling process. The trays
contain a moveable adapter bridge that slides toward the rear when the tray is opened. The sliding bridge
provides slack management as the tray opens.
Fiber cables from the breakout area or raceways are routed under a cover to the rear side of the adapters. The
patch cords connected to the front side of the adapters are routed around a spool containing a retaining flange,
through a raceway, to a vertical array of cascade guides with turnstiles attached to the inboard patch area of
the ADF. A door at the end of each raceway helps guide cables downward into the patch area.
