Instruction Sheet

Page 6 of 12
1. Preinstall rear cable manager as outlined in Step 3 and loosely secure the tie wraps so that cables can be
pulled out and pushed in during front termination.
2. Depress four tabs on a 6-pack module (two tabs on a 12-pack module) and remove module from panel
opening and rotate 180º so that rear of module is facing forward. Temporarily snap module backwards into
an adjacent empty panel opening for terminating as shown on previous figures.
Note: It is necessary to temporarily remove modules from opposite panel opening of module being
terminated to facilitate the front cabling procedure. If adjacent module is already terminated, pull module out
and push cables to one side to allow space to temporarily install module being terminated into opening.
3. Pull an adequate length of cables through panel opening for the terminated module and mark the jacket ring
points. Verify that the cables can be pushed back into final position without snagging.
4. Prepare cables and punch down to module using punch-down tool with M110 blade on HI setting and
termination managers per the instructions on page 4.
Note: Hold module with one hand to secure it from sliding during punch down.
5. After all cables are terminated, remove module and rotate 180º so that front of module is again facing
forward. Position module back into panel opening that cables were pulled through and snap into place.
6. After modules are terminated, check to verify proper cable positioning. If access to rear is available, proceed
to Step 3.
Rear Termination Procedure
Note: Do not remove module from panel opening.
1. Establish proper lengths of cables to the modules so they can be positioned in the rear cable troughs after
installation in Step 3 and mark the jacket ring points.
2. Prepare cables and punch down to module using the punch-down tool with M110 blade on HI setting and
the termination managers per the instructions on page 4.
3. After the modules are terminated, proceed to Step 3.

Step 3 –Assemble and Install Rear Cable Manager
1. Attach the four cable troughs onto bar as shown and insert four hook-and-loop straps into slots in cable
troughs.
2. Attach cable bar to rear of panel.
3. Lay cables evenly in cable troughs and secure using hook-and-loop straps as shown. For front termination
leave straps loose to allow for access of modules.
4. The following figure illustrates a typical completed installation.

Step 4 –Install Front Cord Management, Front Bezel, Labels and Label Covers
1. Position front cord management as shown and slide onto mounting arms until it is seated.
2. Position front bezel at an angle as shown and insert two bottom retention tabs into slots in cord
management.
3. Pivot top of bezel towards panel and insert three tabs on top of bezel into slots in panel until an audible click
is heard.

4. Print the port designations on the white label cards provided. Slide labels and label covers into the label
holders from either end. Each label holder will accommodate labels up to .265 inches (6.7mm) high x 3.50
inches (89mm) wide.
5. Blank, voice, and data icons can be ordered separately in a wide variety of colors and placed into the
pockets in the lower portion of the label holders.
Note: Product code M61K-XX (blank, voice, and data icons) to be ordered separately.

Additional Front Termination Access Instructions
1. Remove two terminated or un-terminated modules (ports 1-6 and ports 7-12) from panel opening to free up
space for new termination sequence. Leave modules out of panel.
2. Remove module to be terminated (ports 13-18) from panel, rotate 180° and temporarily reinstall in adjacent
panel opening.
3. Pull termination manager off by squeezing lock tabs and re-terminate with a replacement termination
manager as previously described in Step 2.
4. Remove newly terminated module, rotate 180° so that front of module again faces forward and reinstall in
proper panel opening.
5. Replace modules removed for this sequence back into place in panel.
