How to Install the FHDBRKOUT17 High Fiber Count Cable Breakout Kit

This guide provides step-by-step instructions for installing and configuring the FHDBRKOUT17 High Fiber Count Cable Breakout Kit, ensuring proper cable management and protection.

Estimated time: 1h

Tools needed:

Screwdriver, Wire strippers, Multimeter

Supplies needed:

Mounting screws, Terminal connectors, Tape

  1. Unpack the kit

    Remove the FHDBRKOUT17 kit from its packaging and verify that all parts listed in the parts list are present.

  2. Feed the cable

    Insert the cable through the cable gland on the base of the breakout kit. Do NOT tighten the cable gland at this stage.

  3. Strip the cable

    Strip the cable down to bare fiber according to the specified total strip length. Ensure you have enough length for the breakout process.

  4. Sort the fibers

    Organize the bare fibers into groupings that make sense for your application, such as 144 fiber groupings.

  5. Cap the fiber ends

    Tape the ends of each fiber grouping to create a cap, preventing individual fibers from breaking during installation.

  6. Prepare the sleeves

    Roll the expandable sleeving off the plastic piece on the sleeve assembly so it hangs off the back. Cut the excess sleeve to ensure it is flush with the plastic piece.

  7. Insert fibers into sleeves

    Feed the bare fiber groupings into the sleeves, ensuring they are protected as they are routed outside of the breakout kit.

  8. Snap sleeves into transition clip

    Once all sleeve assemblies are in place, snap them into the transition clip until you hear a 'CLICK' indicating they are securely installed.

  9. Tighten the cable gland

    Lock down the cable in the base by tightening the cable gland, ensuring it clamps onto the outer jacket of the cable and not the bare fibers.

  10. Install the door

    Attach the door to the breakout kit by compressing the plungers and ensuring the tabs on the cover fit into the slots on the base.

  11. Mount the breakout kit

    Install the breakout kit within a rack or cabinet using the provided mounting options, ensuring it is securely fastened.
