Admonishments
Admonishments — in the form of Dangers, Warnings, and Cautions — must be followed at all
times. These warnings are flagged by use of the triangular alert icon, shown below.
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.
General Warning and Caution Statements
Danger: Avoid eye exposure to unmated connectors. Unmated connectors may emit invisible
laser radiation. Do not look directly into the end of a connector or an adapter port. Do not
inspect with a magnifying device. To ensure safety, maintain caps on unmated connectors at all
times.
Caution: Handle cables with care. Fiber optic cable stubs should be handled with care
throughout the installation procedure to avoid kinking and damage to cables.
1 PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The NG4access standard chassis is a 19-inch (48.26 cm) rack-mount, high-density fiber optic
panel providing up to 576 terminations using LC adapters (or 288 SC terminations). A
NG4access frame fully loaded with six standard chassis provides 3456 LC terminations per
frame in a GR-449 compliant footprint.
The chassis has features providing quick and easy access for connection and routing of fibers.
• Universal LC or SC adapter packs can be used with singlemode or multi-mode, APC or
UPC connectors. LC packs have 12 adapters per pack (24 per access tray). SC packs have
six adapters per pack (12 per access tray).
• Access trays can be moved toward front or rear to provide easy access to adapters from the
front or rear side of the frame.

• Access trays can also be loaded with cabled modules that snap into position. Each cabled
module is pre-terminated with 24 LC or 12 SC adapter/connectors and fibers. Snap-in
MPO and VAM modules are also available.
• Routing guides manage the fibers within the chassis, allowing an access tray to be opened
or closed with no pulling or pinching of fibers.

• Access Tray—can be moved toward front or rear to provide front or rear access to adapter
packs with the associated fibers and connectors. In place of adapter packs, each access tray
may hold a snap-in cabled module, MPO module, or VAM module.
• Tray doors—swing out when an access tray is opened. Tray doors protect the individual
access trays and provide laser eye protection.
• Universal Adapter Pack (LC or SC)—can be used with singlemode or multi-mode, APC
or UPC connectors. LC packs have 24 adapters. SC packs have 12 adapters,
• Routing Guide—holds fibers in an optimal route when access trays are moved toward the
front or rear of the chassis.
• Mounting Tab—provides a physical interface for mounting the chassis on a frame. The
tabs hold four mounting screws, two on each side.

• Guide Strip—provides cable management for fibers routed into the chassis on the front or
rear of the frame.
3 GROUNDING AND BONDING THE CHASSIS
The standard chassis uses thread-forming mounting screws to provide an electrical path
between the chassis and the metalwork in which it is mounted. It is required that nonconductive
coatings must be removed on the mating metal surfaces. Before installation the mating surfaces
must be cleaned and coated with an antioxidant.
4 CHASSIS INSTALLATION PROCEDURE
1. Identify the frame location where chassis will be installed. Prepare area around mounting
holes to provide a good ground (remove paint, clean, and coat with rust preventative).
2. Install screws and star washers into the two left side holes on the rack to hang the chassis
on the rack, then install screws and washers in the right two holes. See
Figure 2.
Note: The frame has six locations for mounting of the chassis.

3. Install guide strips (provided) on front and rear of chassis. To install a strip, align the tabs
on the strip with the slots on the chassis as shown in rear view in
Figure 3, then press the
radius limiters into place as shown. Repeat for all four locations.

5 DOOR INSTALLATION AND OPERATION
The standard chassis is equipped with a separately packed door that when installed protects the
access trays when the chassis is not being accessed.
To install the door:
1. Position the door at a 90 degree angle with respect to the chassis to align the tabs with the
slotted hole, as shown in
brackets, allowing the tabs to slide into the slotted hole.
2. Retract the slides and flip up the door to snap the door into a closed position as shown in
Figure 5.
To open the door:
1. Grasp the door at the top and unsnap it from the chassis.
2. Allow the door to hang down in the full open position shown in Figure 6.
To close the door:
Figure 4. Push out slightly on the mounting arms to clear the
Retract the slides and flip up the door to snap the door into a closed position as shown in
Figure 5.
