CHAPTER 1: OVERVIEW

1.1 INTRODUCTION
This Fiber Wall Cabinet is used to extend indoor fiber optic distribution cable runs out from the data center to a remote wallmount area
in your building. The fiber wallmount enclosure allows the incoming bulk fiber optic distribution cable to break out and terminate to fiber
adapter panels in the enclosure where the user can use fiber duplex cable to connect to your equipment.
The fiber optic open style wall cabinet is perfect for non-secured fiber cabling. The open cabinet has one large door that covers both
internal compartments. The left internal compartment is the technician side and the right internal compartment is the user’s side. This
enclosure can accept up to four fiber adapter panels.
The cabinet’s rugged metallic housing is made of heavy-gauge steel with a powder coat finish. Bulk fiber cabling can enter the enclosure
from the top left or bottom left grommet opening. The rubber grommet is a thin membrane seal that prevents dust from settling inside.
In addition, the enclosure can accommodate an internal splice tray for fusion or mechanical splicing.
1.2 WHAT’S INCLUDED
Your package should include the following items. If anything is missing or damaged, please contact Black Box at 877-877-2269
or [email protected].
1. Open the cabinet’s doors and use a screwdriver to attach the cabinet to a wall with the four included mounting screws. Or, use your
own hardware to mount the cabinet on a block wall.
2. Bring in your bulk fiber cable in either the cabinet’s top left or bottom left on the enclosure.
3. Strip back the cable jacket on the incoming bulk fiber cable and use the cable ties to secure to the enclosure at the internal mounting
points. Make sure you anchor the fiber cable with the Kevlar yarn to the Kevlar clamp on the enclosure.

2.3 PREPARING THE CABLE
1. After the incoming bulk fiber cable is secured to the enclosure, wrap the excess individual fiber strands around the semi-circular rings.
2. Install the fiber adapter panels in the wallmount fiber enclosure.
3. Terminate each fiber strand with the fiber optic connector and attach it to the fiber adapter panel.
2.4 ROUTING THE FIBER PATCH CABLES
1. After all the individual strands are terminated and connected to the fiber adapter panels, use fiber patch cables and connect to the user
side of the adapter panels.
2. After the patch cords are terminated and connected to the fiber adapter panel, use the cable ties and stick-on rectangular cable
holders to organize your work.
