To connect cables into the cable connector ports in the FIC or a PIC faceplate (see
Figure 37 on page 121, which shows a fiber-optic PIC):
1. Have ready a length of the type of cable used by the FIC or PIC, as specified in “FIC
Specifications for the M7i Router” on page 45 or the M7i Multiservice Edge Router
Interface Module Reference.
2. If the cable connector port is covered by a rubber safety plug, remove the plug.
3. Insert the cable connector into the cable connector port on the FIC or PIC faceplate.
4. Arrange the cable to prevent it from dislodging or developing stress points. Secure
the cable so that it is not supporting its own weight as it hangs to the floor. Place
excess cable out of the way in a neatly coiled loop. Placing fasteners on the loop helps
to maintain its shape.
