! ALERT

ALERT! This product must be installed and maintained by qualified technicians.

After installing all feeder and distribution cabling in the rear compartment, close the rear compartment. All subscriber changes are done in the front compartment. First, however, the high-intensity feeder signals needs to be split before cross connecting to the distribution.

Telect Splitter Modules are installed, interconnected to the incoming feeder fiber, and cross connected to distribution fiber in the front compartment. After installing OSP cable, the rear compartment need not be re-opened.

Telect manufactures four Splitter Module configurations for this cabinet: 1 x 4, 1 x 8, 1 x 16, and 1 x 32.

To install a Splitter Module, proceed as follows:

1.Start at Splitter Position 18 on the right and insert module in splitter bulkhead near bottom of front compartment.

2.As shown in the illustration on the right, push in the two plunger-style latches to se- cure the module.

The splitter module has one blue 2-mm jumper for the feed-in and 4, 8, 16, or 32 yellow 2-mm jumpers for the distribution. All splitter jumpers are 2.1 m in length.

3.Route the blue jumper to the first feeder adapter on the left at the top of the front compartment, as shown in the illustration on the right.

Going from right most splitter module to left most feeder adapter guarantees that the blue jumpers from all splitter modules will neatly fit the same pathway around the routing arcs and spools in the right half of the compartment. Prefer to route the blue jumpers as shown in the following illustration, that is, around the bottom, right most spool, up to the nearest arc, down around the bottom most spool to the left of the other, and on up to the feeder bulkhead.
