About This Chapter
Note
Remove the side doors and the front door before installing and routing cables Reinstall all these doors after installing and routing all cables and fibers Refer to Chapter 12 "Installing the Doors of the Cabinet"
This chapter guides you to install and route fiber jumpers
The fiber jumpers of the OptiX OSN 3500 are divided into internal fiber jumpers and external fiber jumpers
Internal fiber jumpers are used for connecting optical interfaces within a cabinet While external fiber jumpers are used for connecting optical interfaces of a cabinet with those of other cabinets or peripherals
The following table lists the contents of this chapter
10.1Fiber Jumpers Describes the connectors and types of the fiber jumpers 10.2Installing and Routing
External Fiber Jumpers
Describes how to install and route the external fiber jumpers.
10.3Installing and Routing Internal Fiber Jumpers
Describes how to install and route the internal fiber jumpers.
10.4Checking the Fiber Jumper Installation

Trang 410.1 Fiber Jumpers
The fiber jumpers are used to connect the optical boards on one subrack with those in other cabinets or other equipment All fiber jumpers can be transferred by
an external optical distribution frame (ODF)

The optical interfaces of the SLT1/SLO1/R1SLQ1/R1SL4/R1SLD4/R1SL1 cannot be connected with a fixed optical attenuator The “OUT” optical interfaces
of all Optical boards cannot be connected with a fixed optical attenuator
Trang 610.2 Installing and Routing External Fiber
Jumpers
This section describes the procedure to install and route external fiber jumpers The corrugated pipe is used to protect the fibers between the cabinet and the ODF
10.2.1 The Fiber Hole and Corrugated Pipe
The Fiber Hole
There are fiber holes on the top and bottom of the cabinet Route the fiber jumpers through the fiber holes
Figure 1.1 and Figure 1.2 show the fiber holes
Figure 1.1 Fiber holes on the top of the cabinet
Fiber hole Fiber hole
Figure 1.2 Fiber holes on the bottom of the cabinet
The Corrugated Pipe
When routing fiber jumpers outside the cabinet, a corrugated pipe or a winding pipe must be added for protecting the fiber jumpers
Trang 7One corrugated pipe can contain 12–15 pieces of fiber jumpers One 12 mm winding pipe can wind thirty pieces of fiber jumpers, while one 6 mm winding pipe can wind eighteen pieces
In this section the corrugated pipe is taken as an example
Appropriate length of the corrugated pipe is required This length is the distance from the cabinet to the ODF plus the length the pipe will extend into the cabinet and the ODF (so long as the fiber jumpers do not touch the upper beam when routing inside the cabinet)
10.2.2 Procedure for Upward Cabling
Purpose This procedure guides you to connect and route the fiber
jumpers between the subrack and the ODF.
Tools/Materials Corrugated pipe or winding pipe
Binding strap Labels
Prerequisites The ODF in the equipment room has been installed
properly, with interfaces reserved for use.
Required/As needed Required if the fiber jumpers are upward routed.
Caution
The bend radius of the fiber jumper must be greater than its minimum curvature radius Specifically, the minimum curvature radius for the 2 mm fiber jumper is
40 mm, and that for the 3 mm fiber jumper is 60 mm
Note
Routing the fiber jumpers on the right of the cross-connect and timing board is taken as an example in the description below Routing on the left side is the same
Step 1 Attach temporary labels to both ends of the fiber jumpers
Step 2 Measure and cut the corrugated pipe and wrap the incision with adhesive tape to
protect the fiber jumpers
Step 3 Route the fiber jumper through the corrugated pipe It is forbidden to force the
fiber jumper in
Step 4 Route the corrugated pipe into the cabinet (3cm) through the fiber hole on the top
of the cabinet
Trang 8Step 5 Route the fiber jumpers downward along the fiber path on the right of the cabinet
and then into the subrack cabling trough See Figure 1.1

Step 7 Take the protective cap off the fiber connector and clean the fiber connector with
special cleaning tissue Keep the protective caps well for possible use in the future
Step 8 Align the fiber connector against the optical interface and insert it in along the
slide rail with appropriate strength until you hear a click
Step 9 Coil the redundant fiber jumpers in the fiber spool box

10.3 Installing and Routing Internal Fiber
Jumpers
This section guides you to install and route internal fiber jumpers Internal fiber jumpers are used to connect boards in a subrack or connect the boards with other devices (COA, for example) in the cabinet
Internal fiber jumpers can be routed:
Between optical interface boards in the subrack In this case, the fiber spool box is installed above the subrack
Between the subrack and other devices (for example, SS62COA) in the cabinet In this case, the fiber spool box is installed below the subrack and above the COA
For details of the fiber spool box, refer to Chapter 8 "Installing the Fiber Spool Box" For details of the COA, refer to Chapter 7 "Installing the COA and DCM"
