Chapter 2 Installation
Housing Base Fiber Optic Cable Installation -
Passive Modules

Overview

The Model GS7000 Optical Hub housing comes with six fiber cable entry ports, two
on the lid and four on the base. The lid ports utilize a standard 4 to 12 count FSC
cable connecting the actives modules, such as EDFAs and optical switches, to the
fiber closure. The base ports utilize a 24 to 48 count MPO (multi-fiber push-on) FSC
for connection between the passive modules and the fiber distribution plant feeding
nodes. Refer to Housing Lid Fiber Optic Cable Installation - Active Modules (on
page 20) for instructions on housing lid FSC installation.
The Model GS7000 Optical Hub can accept a fiber optic cable connector for the
passive modules in the housing base from either the left side (ports TP1 and TP2) or
the right side (ports TP4 and TP5) 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 performance. Be sure to carefully
follow fiber connector manufacturer's instructions. See Care and Cleaning of
Optical Connectors (on page 103).
