Fiber Optic Cable Installation 
Overview 
The GS7000 Node can accept a fiber optic cable connector from either the right or left 
side of the housing, or both. The fiber optic cable(s) carries forward and reverse 
optical signals. 
This procedure assumes a specific type of connector as an example. Your connector 
may be different from the one shown in these illustrations. Be sure to install the 
connector according to the connector manufacturer’s instructions. 
Important: Fiber optic cable installation is a critical procedure. Incorrect installation 
can result in severely degraded GS7000 Node performance. Be sure to carefully 
follow fiber connector manufacturer’s instructions. See Care and Cleaning of Optical 
Connectors
 (on page 148). 
 
Color Code 
Fiber connectors and adapters are labeled with the following color code. 
Note: This is only a suggested setup. Your fiber assignment may be different. Refer 
to your network diagrams to verify your color code.

Fiber Management System 
The fiber management system is made up of a fiber tray and a fiber routing track. 
The fiber tray provides a convenient location to store excess fiber and up to two 
WDM modules in the node. The tray is hinged to allow it to move out of the way 
during the insertion of the fibers and for installation or replacement of the node
