Important safety admonishments are used throughout this manual to warn of possible hazards to persons or equipment. These warnings are flagged by use of the triangular alert icon (seen below) and are listed in descending order of severity of injury or damage and likelihood of occurrence.

Danger: Danger is used to indicate the presence of a hazard that will cause severe personal injury, death, or substantial property damage if the hazard is not avoided.

Warning: Warning is used to indicate the presence of a hazard that can cause severe personal injury, death, or substantial property damage if the hazard is not avoided.

Caution: Caution is used to indicate the presence of a hazard that will or can cause minor personal injury or property damage if the hazard is not avoided.

1 DESCRIPTION

ADCP-92-098 • Rev C • May 2018

The FPX 1U and 2U Panels can accommodate up to 48 and 96 terminations, respectively. The FPX 1U and 2U Panels can be configured for termination and splice or termination only (without splice trays).

Note: The Fiber Panel Next Generation is designed to be installed in an environmentally controlled network telecommunications facility such as a Central Office, Controlled Environmental Vault, or Data Center.

Figure 1 shows the external features of a typical 1U panel.

Figure 1. FPX 1U Panel External Features

Page 3

ADCP-92-098 • Rev C • May 2018

Typically, these panels ship empty (without adapter packs, MPO cassettes, splice trays, or pigtails), but they may also be ordered with any of these components already installed.The panel accommodates adapter packs and MPO cassettes.

Caution: Adapter packs and MPO cassettes should not be both used in the same panel.

The panel may be ordered loaded with adapter packs only, or loaded with both adapter packs and pre-terminated, factory-installed cable. While not recommended, field-installed connectors can be accommodated.

The panel may be used in either single mode or multimode applications, and with either stranded or ribbon cable. Cables can be either Intrafacility Fiber (IFC) or Outside Plant (OSP).

2.8 Termination Only Installation

Install cable after panel is mounted in the equipment rack, as described in

Section 2.2

. Installation consists of routing cable to the panel, stripping back outside cable sheath exposing the optical fibers, installing a cable clamp to secure cable to the panel, and routing fibers to the splice tray. If cable has a metallic strength member it must be grounded following local practices.

Two clamps are provided since two cables may be installed on a single panel. Each clamp can accommodate one cable with an outside diameter of 0.2 to 0.7 inches (0.51 to 1.78 cm). Refer to

Section 3.1 for clamp installation. Typically, only one cable is installed per panel. the cable

clamp may be installed on either side.

Allow a fiber service loop of at least 96-inches (2.5 meters) when stripping the cable sheath. This provides sufficient length for routing the buffer tubes within the panel and for splicing. After entry, the buffer tubes are routed to the splice tray. Splice tray mounts on the bottom of the panel.

Use the following procedure to secure the IFC/OSP cable at the fiber entry point and to route the optical fibers into the panel:

1. Route the IFC/OSP cable to the selected entry opening at the side of the panel.

Note: Cables may enter the panel from either the left or right and may be clamped to either the left or right side. For cable mounting locations see

Figure 14.

Figure 14. Typical FPX Configured with Termination Only (Rear View)

2. Strip back cable sheath approximately 96-inches (2.5 meters) to expose optical fibers. Follow cable manufacturer's recommendations when stripping the sheath.

3. Determine the correct clamp and grommet combination required to secure the cable to the panel. A rubber clamp and grommets of various sizes are provided. Select a grommet that

Page 14

when placed around the cable, has a gap of nearly zero to 0.30 inches (0.76 cm). If the

cable diameter is greater than 0.70 inches (1.78 cm), only the rubber clamp is required.

4. Use the rubber clamp, clamp cover, grommet (if required), and two screws to secure the cable end to the side of the panel, as shown in

5. If splicing is to be completed later coil the buffer tubes around the radius limiters on the bottom of the panel and close rear cover. If splicing now follow local practices.

3 CABLE CLAMP INSTALLATION

3.1 Installing a Cable Clamp for OSP Cable

For both termination and splice panels and termination only panels, an OSP cable must be installed and routed. The procedure is the same regardless of the type of panel being installed. The OSP cable can enter the panel from the left or right side of the panel (as viewed from the rear of the panel). Determine the direction of cable entrance and install the cable clamp as shown in the example in

Figure 15.

Section 3.1

ADCP-92-098 • Rev C • May 2018

for a left or right entry cable.

3.2 Installing a Cable Clamp for MPO Trunk Cable

Note: This procedure requires use of the MPO trunk cable clamp kit, which can be ordered from CommScope using catalog # TFP-ACC002. This kit is required for routing MPO trunk cable in panels with MPO adapter packs. This kit may also be used for routing MPO trunk cable in panels with MPO cassettes, but the kit is not required for MPO cassette applications.

Note: When the MPO trunk cable clamp kit is used, there are limitations on the number of panels that can be stacked up on the rack in certain configurations. For more information, refer to the instructions (ADCP-92-080) provided with the kit.

For panels with MPO adapter packs, an MPO trunk cable must be installed and routed. The procedure is the same regardless of the type of panel being installed.

The MPO trunk cable can enter the panel from the left or right side of the panel (as viewed from the rear of the panel).

Determine the direction of cable entrance and install the cable clamp. Some orientation examples are shown in

4.1 Termination and Splice Panel Procedures

4.1.1 Routing Pigtails

Typically, the termination and splice panel is shipped without adapter packs or pigtails and will therefore need to be configured as required. Alternatively, the panel may have been ordered with adapter packs pre-cabled with pigtails or with MPO cassettes already installed. If pigtails need to be routed in the panel being installed, route the pigtails corresponding to the example shown in

Figure 17 for a right side adapter pack or Figure 18 for a left side adapter pack.
