How to Install the ZDF24-S25 Universal Distribution Frame

This guide provides step-by-step instructions for installing the ZDF24-S25 Universal Distribution Frame on a DIN rail, including wiring and initial setup.

Estimated time: 1h

Tools needed:

Screwdriver, Wire strippers, Multimeter

Supplies needed:

Mounting screws, Cage nuts, Ground wire, Terminal connectors

  1. Install the tier on the rails

    Secure the Universal Distribution Frame tier to the 19” rails using the supplied cage nuts and screws. Leave two rack units above the mounting bracket for cable management and the patch panel.

  2. Remove terminal blocks

    Before applying power, remove any wires from the terminal blocks and then remove the terminal blocks themselves.

  3. Install switches

    Install the switches in the recommended positions as indicated in the installation guide. Ensure to connect the supplied ground wire to each switch according to the manufacturer's instructions.

  4. Wire incoming power

    Wire the incoming power to the tier, following the switch manufacturer's instructions and the supplied Field Wiring Diagram. Ensure that all circuit breakers are in the OFF position during this process.

  5. Install strain relief bars

    Install strain relief bars as needed to support the weight of the cables running to the patch panel. Use the deeper strain relief bar behind the patch panel and a shallower bar to prevent interference with power supplies.

  6. Install fiber spool
