To mount the tabletop stand to the GigaCenter

1.

Remove the tabletop stand from the bottom of the carton.

2.

Remove and temporarily set aside the fiber access cover from the 844G/854G

GigaCenter.

3.

Orient the stand and the GigaCenter as shown above with the LEDs on the right.

4.

Lower the GigaCenter onto the tabletop stand keeping a 9/16" offset to allow proper

mating of the two pieces.

5.

Once seated on the stand, slide the Gigacenter back onto the stand until it stops and the

back end of the GigaCenter is flush with the back edge of the stand.

6.

Leave the fiber access cover off temporarily.

7.

Installing the Composite Cable - Tabletop Mount

With the tabletop stand mounted to the GigaCenter, the incoming composite fiber must be

connected to the GigaCenter.

When deployed without the Fiber Management Tray, the incoming fiber connection enters

the GigaCenter through a fiber channel molded into the unit. An access cover is included

providing a protective cover ensuring the connection is not disturbed and that the fiber

cannot be inadvertently disconnected. Once the fiber connection is completed, the

GigaCenter fiber access cover is attached with a provided Phillips head screw.

Note:

Refer to

Installing the Composite Cable - Wall Mount

(on page 33) for additional

information.

ALERT!

A protective cap or hood must be placed over any radiating

bulkhead receptacle or optical fiber patch cord.

CAUTION!

Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures

other than those specified here may result in hazardous radiation exposure.

DANGER!

A Class 1 laser product with an internal Class IIIb hazard is used

in this equipment. Use an optical power meter to identify active fibers. Never

assume laser power is turned off or that the fiber is disconnected at the other

end.

Overview of procedure

Note:

For the purposes of these instructions, it is assumed that a Local Convergence Point

(LCP) has been located somewhere near the planned GigaCenter installation site and that a

5mm fiber pigtail will be used to connect the GigaCenter to the GPON network.



Route the 5mm fiber pigtail from the GigaCenters planned location back to the Local

Convergence Point (LCP)



Attach the pigtail to the GigaCenter



Secure the pigtail to the tabletop stand



Route the pigtail back to the LCP and connect to the GPON network



Dress up any slack fiber as appropriate

To install the composite cable

1.

Route the 5mm fiber pigtail from the LCP to the tabletop.

2.

Insert the pigtail end through the fiber access slot as shown above.

3.

Insert the SC-APC pigtail into the bulkhead fitting inside the GigaCenter.

4.

Wrap any excess fiber around the fiber management stays inside the stand assembly.

Depending on the amount of slack fiber that is available, you can install the pigtail using a

clockwise loop or a straight in approach can be used.

Note:

For deployments where the final fusion splice must be near the GigaCenter, a

buffer tube corral is molded into the bottom of the tabletop stand assembly (see below).

5.

Use cable ties as necessary to fully secure the excess fiber, being careful not to over-

tighten the cable ties and thereby crimping the fiber.

Wall Mounting the GigaCenter

Wall Mounting Dimensions

Dimensions for a wall or SWE mounted GigaCenter are included here for reference.

To mount the fiber management tray

1.

Test mount the GigaCenter to the fiber management tray to determine final desired

orientation for incoming and outgoing wiring.

2.

Disconnect the GigaCenter from the fiber management tray and set the GigaCenter

aside.

3.

Mount the fiber management tray to the wall or SWE using appropriate fasteners based

on the material you are attaching to.
