20.1 Overview
This chapter describes the fiber optic cable management for the 7360 ISAM FX-4
shelf.
The fiber optic cable management strategy is based on the following concepts:
1 To route the fiber optic cables out of the rack toward the vertical cable channels
located on both sides of the front of the rack.
2 To route the fiber optic cables within the 7360 ISAM FX-4 shelf toward the
dedicated fiber outlets of the shelf.
3 To protect the fiber optic cables using optional bending protection items.
The 7360 ISAM FX-4 fiber optic cable management strategy incorporates the
following hardware:
• Fiber management kit to provide proper fiber optic cable handling
• Fiber routing ring guides specially designed for fiber optic cable routing
management that are factory installed on the 7360 ISAM FX-4 top baffle to
provide:
• cable control
• cable support
Figure 224 shows a view of the 7360 ISAM FX-4 fiber management kit.
