Composite Cable Assemblies
Andrew part number AE04J-A0578-XXX is the part number for fully assembled and tested
composite fiber optic cable assemblies, where XXX denotes the cable length in meters. These
composite cables are plenum rated and have two 18 gauge copper wires and four single mode
fiber optic cables. The cables are cut to the customer specified length and terminated at each end
with one power connector and two SC/APC fiber optic connectors. Two fibers are used and the
remaining two fibers are spares. The cables are optically and electrically tested and then packed
for delivery. Andrew recommends factory terminated and tested cables for the best system
performance.

not needed if the alarm signals on the CDU rear panels are not monitored.

InCell CDU Rack Mount Brackets
Andrew recommends using side brackets in equipment racks to support the side and the rear of
the CDU when mounted in a rack. These L-brackets mount inside the rack and provide support
to the CDU that may be needed when big cables are connected to the rear of the CDU. Andrew
has several part numbers for these brackets in different lengths.
