Installing Cable Slack Managers
Issue 3 January 2008 25
Run excess cables on an upper cable ladder (if the MDF connectors are on top) or route them
through a cable slack manager that is placed next to the MDF.
To install cable slack managers:
1. Place the Z113A Cable Slack Manager against the wall under the MDF. See
Figure 9: Cable routing through Cable Slack Manager—example for SCC1 Media
Gateway on page 27. Align the left side of the cable slack manager with the first terminal
block of the trunk/auxiliary field.
2. Place the next cable slack manager beside the previously installed unit. Align the tabs and
interlocks and snap the units together.
3. Repeat Step 2 until all cable slack managers are installed.
Note:
Note: Nine 1/4-inch (0.63 centimeter) holes are provided in a cable slack manager base
if earthquake mounting is required. If a base is mounted on an uneven floor,
shims may be required for leveling and to assure proper fit of the covers.
Holes are provided in the sides of the base for bolting cable slack manager
together. Obtain bolts and shims locally.
4. An example of how the media gateway cables route through the cable slack manager is
shown in Figure 8: Cable routing through Cable Slack Manager—example for MCC1 Media
Gateway on page 26.
