4.2 Unpacking and Inspection
This section provides instructions for opening the shipping boxes, verifying that all parts have
been received, and verifying that no shipping damage has occurred. Use the following
procedure to unpack and inspect the HU and any accessories:
1. Open the shipping cartons and carefully unpack each component from the protective
packing material.
2. Check each component for broken or missing parts. If there are damages, contact ADC
(see section 6 at the end of this manual) for an RMA (Return Material Authorization) and
to reorder if replacement is required.
4.3 OSP Fiber Cable Installation Guidelines
The outside plant (OSP) fiber optic cables should be routed between the HU and RU and
terminated before the equipment is installed. A diagram of a typical OSP cable routing is shown
in
Figure 8 . At the HU, the OSP cable should be terminated at a fiber distribution panel and
spliced to pigtails. Jumper patch cords may then be used to link the HU optical ports to the OSP
cable terminations. Whenever possible, a guideway such as the FiberGuide system should be
provided to protect the fiber optic patch cords from damage and to prevent excessive bending.
The procedures for connecting the OSP cable optical fibers to the HU is provided in
Section 4.8 .
