Installing the cabinet 2-3
AccessNode Series 800A Outside Plant Cabinet Installation 323-3001-210 Issue 1.0
Mounting the cabinet
Typically, the cabinet is mounted on a poured concrete pad with buried power
and telephone cables passing up through the pad into the bottom of the cabinet.
See chapter 1, “Installing the pad” for more information.
Anchor plate kits
To facilitate placement, optional anchor plate kits are available as shown in
Table 2-1.
Each kit consists of an 11-gauge galvanized anchoring template assembly with
anchor bolts and temporary support angles.
Securing the cabinet to the pad
To secure the cabinet, two anchor bolts are accessible by removing the lower
access plate on the ac side of the cabinet. The remaining two bolts can be
reached through the termination compartment by opening the compartment
door and the serving area interface (SAI) swing frame. To secure the attached
ac power pedestal option, the anchor bolts are accessible by opening the
compartment door.
The top of the cabinet is fitted with four removable lifting eyebolts that support
the load during site installation. After cabinet mounting, the four lifting bolts
should be removed and replaced with a stainless steel bolt and a stainless steel
flat washer that are included with each cabinet.
Cable entry
The S800A cabinet is constructed with cable conduit entry ports located at the
bottom of the end compartments of the cabinet (see Figure 2-1 on page 2-6).
Note: All trade sizes listed are based on Schedule 40 PVC.
Termination compartment
The termination compartment has four 4.5 in. inside diameter (ID) openings
for 4 in. trade size conduit and one 2 in. ID opening for 1 in. trade size conduit.
