Cabling without in-cabinet splicing involves an aerial or below-ground splice box for splicing the distribution and feeder cables to 
connectorized cabinet cabling. 

•

At the cabinet, the OSP distribution cable is clamped at the floor of the rear compartment and then routed along the cabi-
net’s compartment partition. The connectorized 250 µm strands break out here into subunits/buffers and then connected to 
one of the six possible, 72-channel Patch Modules. Each patch module contains SC/APC adapters to interface the distribu-
tion fiber in the rear compartment to the cross connections in the front compartment.

•

Feeder cable is anchored along the rear side wall where 900 µm fiber breaks out into subunits/buffers and routed to 16 
SC/APC interface adapters near the top of the cabinet.

Each SC/APC adapter at the top of the cabinet serves to feed the fiber signal to a blue jumper in the front compartment, shown in the 
preceding illustration. The blue jumper is routed down through the right portion of the front compartment, then around a couple of 
spools and an arc. The two spools at the bottom route the blue fiber to a Telect Splitter Module.

Up to 18, 1x4, 1x8, 1x16, or 1x32 Telect Splitter Modules can be installed in the splitter bulkhead at the bottom of the front compart-
ment. Each splitter module consists of the splitter, one blue “input” jumper, and either 4, 8, 16, or 32 yellow “output” jumpers. All are 
2 mm jumpers, 2.1 m in length.

Splitter module installation and all of the distribution changes occur in this front compartment:

•

Unassigned jumpers are routed via spools and arcs to a parking station for later subscriber assignment.

•

Assigned jumpers are routed via the spools and arcs to the front of the SC/APC adapters in the front of the patch modules 
for cross connection to the distribution fiber connected to the rear of the patch modules.
