Note: A blocking kit is recommended when installing ribbon cable. The blocking kit includes plastic tubes that protect the fiber ribbons and prevent damage. If a grounding kit is required, strip the cable sheath to the recommended length and install the grounding clamp prior to securing the cable to the cabinet.
4.Three cable clamping positions are provided for securing feeder cables as shown in Figure 14. Select one of the clamping positions as the attachment point for the cable.
Note: Use the middle cable clamp position first and the top clamp position second when installing the feeder cables. The bottom clamp position is an extra. The bracket for the top row of clamps may be removed if necessary to facilitate cable installation.

7.If a grounding kit was installed on the cable, attach the cable grounding lead to one of the grounding studs located within the cabinet (see Figure 13).
8.From the cable clamping location, route the first fiber subunit up the right side of the cabinet as shown in Figure 16.
