Install Cable Slack Managers
1 Place the Z113A Cable Slack Manager against the wall under the MDF. See ‘‘Cable
Routing Through Cable Slack Manager (SCC)’’ on page 188. Align the left side of the
cable slack manager with the first terminal block of the trunk/auxiliary field.
2 Place the next cable slack manager beside the previously installed unit. Align the tabs
and interlocks and snap the units together.
3 Repeat Step 2 until all cable slack managers are installed.
NOTE:
Nine 1/4-in. holes (0.63 cm) are provided in a cable slack manager base if earthquake
mounting is required. If a base is mounted on an uneven floor, shims may be required for
leveling and to assure proper fit of the covers.
Holes are provided in the sides of the base for bolting cable slack manager together. Bolts
and shims must be obtained locally.
4 The S8700 Multi-Connect configuration cables will route through the cable slack
manager as shown. Complete cable routing is covered later in this chapter.
Cable clamps are required in installations with cable slack managers. At the rear of the media
gateways, install 2 cable clamps using the screws provided. These clamps hold the 25-pair
input/output or MDF cables in place. ‘‘Cable Routing Through Cable Slack Manager (MCC)’’
on page 187 and ‘‘Cable Routing Through Cable Slack Manager (SCC)’’ on page 188 show
cable clamp placement and cable routing.
