ADCP-90-328 • Issue 2 • November 2005 The front side of the 72 position termination and splice panel is identical to the termination only panel shown in Figure 1. In general, the termination components of any FPL termination and splice panel are identical to the termination components of the panel’s termination and splice panel counterpart. Only the splice components are different. Figure 6 on the preceding page shows the typical components unique to the splice function of a termination and splice panel.

ADCP-90-328 • Issue 2 • November 2005 The panel can be mounted in either a 19- or 23-inch EIA or WECO equipment rack with either a 4-inch or 5-inch recess. The panel is shipped with the mounting brackets positioned for installation in a 19-inch rack with a 5-inch recess. For other mounting configurations, the brackets must be removed and reinstalled in a different orientation. Use the following procedure to mount the panel on the rack: 1.
ADCP-90-328 • Issue 2 • November 2005 Typically, only one cable is installed per panel. The cable clamp can be installed on either side. A grounding lug is included with each clamp for grounding OSP cables that have metallic strength members or metallic sheaths. Allow a fiber service loop of at least 8 feet (2.5 meters) when stripping the sheath off the cable. This will provide sufficient length for routing the buffer tubes within the FPL panel and for splicing.

Use the nut and screw provided to fasten the grounding lug to the chassis at the point shown in Figure 23. If the sheath bonding kit was installed, connect a bonding wire between the connector stud and the lug. If the cable has a metallic core member, insert the core member into the lug and tighten. 6.
ADCP-90-328 • Issue 2 • November 2005 In a typical installation, the methods and procedures that will be used for splicing are determined by local practice. Use the following procedure to organize the pigtails and buffer tubes for splicing and to store completed splices: Danger: Infrared radiation is invisible and can seriously damage the retina of the eye. Do not look into the optical bulkhead of an operational transmitter or into the receiver end of an active fiber.

The following sections describe the installation procedure to use based on the application. Danger: Infrared radiation is invisible and can seriously damage the retina of the eye.
ADCP-90-328 • Issue 2 • November 2005 1. Connect the FOT equipment patch cord to the appropriate bulkhead adapter/receptacle at the front side of the FPL panel as shown in Figure 31. Note: If using biconic or ST receptacles, install a 0 dB build-out to permit installation of the patch cord. 2. Use the retainers at the left and right sides of the FPL panel to route patch cords away from the front side of the FPL panel. 3. Route patch cord from the FPL panel to the FOT equipment. 4.
ADCP-90-328 • Issue 2 • November 2005 2. Route the patch cord from the FOT equipment to the rear side of the FPL panel. 3. Connect the FOT equipment patch cord to the appropriate bulkhead adapter/receptacle within the FPL panel as shown in Figure 32. Note: If using biconic or ST receptacles, install a 0 dB build-out to permit installation of the patch cord. 4. Coil excess patch cord slack around the radius limiters on the bottom of the FPL panel. 5.
ADCP-90-328 • Issue 2 • November 2005 1. Open the front cover of both the FOT equipment and OSP-dedicated FPL panel.
