DESCRIPTION
General Description
The OmniReach 72-port Outdoor Fiber Splitter Box (FSB), shown on the front cover of this
manual and in Figure 1, is a weather-resistant service distribution box providing a convenient
means to split out signals from a network feeder cable to multiple subscribers in a commercial
Multiple Tenant Unit (MTU) or residential Dwelling Unit (MDU). The FSB is designed to be
mounted on the outside of the MTU or MDU building where it provides network technicians
with a simple “plug in when ready” service connection between the feeder cable and drop
cables routed to the individual units within the building.

ADCP-96-151 • Issue 1 • 8/2008
The FSB features a hinged service access deck that divides it into front and back areas with
different service applications. In its closed position, the deck serves as the interface for turning
up subscribers, in a switchboard fashion, by unplugging the splitter output connectors from a
“parking lot” (where they are positioned temporarily until assigned) and plugging them into
adapters that are in turn connected to drop cables. Swinging the service deck out on its hinge (as
shown in Figure 1) provides access to the back area of the FSB containing the feeder cable,
splice trays, splitters, and associated internal cables. This spatial arrangement conforms to the
typical use of the FSB since the front area is accessed fairly frequently (each time a new
subscriber is added) while the back area is usually accessed only once when the box is installed
or occasionally to add splice trays or splitters.
22927-A
Figure 1. 72-Port FSB With Service Access Deck Swung Out
In its maximum use configuration, the 72-port FSB accommodates 72 subscribers by splitting
12 network signal inputs into 72 outputs. The FSB is equipped with a sealed grommet cable
portal that accommodates a variety of feeder cable types. The feeder cable is secured within the
back area of the FSB using a standard-grip cable clamp providing the required strength against
accidental pull out.
The FSB construction of heavy gauge aluminum finished with a heavy powder coat protects
against rain, wind, dust, rodents, and corrosion while remaining lightweight for ease of
installation. The FSB is available either with or without factory-installed components including
feeder cable stub, splice trays, splitters, and internal cables. In the standard configuration, it is
shipped without a feeder cable but with splice trays, splitters, and internal cables. Several
different types of splitters offering a range of splitter ratios are available. Each unit is furnished
with a wall mount bracket.

1.2
Function
Figure 2 is a schematic depicting the function of the 72-port Fiber Splitter Box. As shown, the
signal path goes from the feeder cable to the splice tray and from there to the splitters. From the
splitter, in an active circuit, the multiple outputs are routed through internal cables to the
adapters from which the signal travels through drop cables to the subscriber premises.
The parking lot provides temporary storage for the internal cables carrying unassigned splitter
outputs.

INSTALLATION
This section includes detailed instructions on how to install an FSB.
This section includes a standard procedure and optional procedures. The standard procedure is
for an FSB with no feeder cable stub and with splice trays, splitter input cables, splitters, and
splitter output cables having been installed at the factory. The optional procedures are for use
when splice trays or splitters are being installed onsite.
To allow full access into the FSB, ADC recommends choosing a mounting area with at least 13
inches (33 cm) space on the left (hinged side) of the enclosure, and 19 inches (48 cm) in front of
the enclosure.The portals for the feeder (input) cable and drop (output) cables are on the bottom
of the FSB.
Warning: Never install equipment in a wet location or during a lightning storm. When
installing or modifying communication lines, disconnect lines at the network interface before
working with uninsulated lines or terminals.

• Drill with bit (typically for #12 wood screws)
• 1½ inch #12 wood screws
• Screwdriver
• Splice kit
Caution: Handle Cables with Care
Fiber optic cable stubs should be handled with care throughout the installation procedure to
avoid kinking and damage to cables.
Note: The wall surface must be strong enough to support the weight of the enclosure
(approximately 30 lbs (13.7 kg), not including stub cables) and appropriate hardware must
be used to secure the enclosure to the wall.
Install the FSB using the following procedure:
1. Using the FSB as a template, mark the locations for the top wall mounting holes. ADC
recommends a wall height of 60 inches (152 cm) for the top of the cabinet.
2. Drill the two holes for the top mounting hangers.
3. Screw two 1½-inch #12 wood screws into the holes, leaving about 1/2-inch (1 cm)
between the screw heads and the wall.
4. Lift the box into place and hang on the wall as shown in Figure 6.
5. Level the enclosure and tighten the two top screws.
6. Using the two bottom mounting brackets as guides, drill holes for the bottom mounting
brackets.

OPERATION METHODS AND PROCEDURES
This section includes detailed instructions on steps required to put the ODE into service, and
steps that may be required during the operational life of the ODE.
3.1
Safety Precautions
Follow these guidelines for safe operation and fiber handling procedures.
Danger: Avoid Eye Exposure to Unmated Connectors
Unmated connectors may emit invisible laser radiation. Do not look directly into the end of a
connector or an adapter port. Do not inspect with a magnifying device. To ensure safety
maintain caps on unmated connectors at all times.
Caution: This Enclosure Is For Use with Passive Components Only
This enclosure is not rated or approved for use with active electronic components.
Page 16
© 2008, ADC Telecommunications, Inc.
ADCP-96-151 • Issue 1 • 8/2008
Caution: Use Optical Caps
Connector plug caps and adapter covers should always be used on unmated connectors and
ports. Plug caps should be kept on pre-connectorized pigtails during routing in order to prevent
damage to the polished end face on the connector.
Caution: Do Not Use Tie Wraps on Fiber
Cable ties should not be cinched tightly secured around fiber jumpers because they may induce
fiber loss or even damage fibers. Ties may be used for containment only, but not for tight
wrapping.
Caution: Maintain Fiber Minimum Bend Radius
Fiber jumper cables must be arranged in turns, bends, and loops not less than the minimum
bending radius of the cable. For individual jacketed jumpers (2 mm) and pigtails (0.9 mm)
supplied with the ODE enclosure bend radius should not exceed a minimum of 1.5-inches (38
mm). Outdoor stub cables should not exceed a bend diameter of 20x the cable diameter.
Caution: Handle Fiber with Care
Do not tug, twist or tie fiber cables while handling fiber.
3.2
Service Connection
Follow these procedures for making service connections.
Danger: Avoid Eye Exposure to Unmated Connectors

3.4
Connector and Adapter Cleaning
Note: It is recommended that the craft follow local standard cleaning procedure when
cleaning connectors and adapters.
Note: Alternate cleaning procedures are available from ADC for use in especially dirty
environments.
1. ADC recommends dry cleaning first with lint free materials, such as Chemtronics®
QbE™ wipes for connectors and Coventry™ 2.5mm fiber optic swabs for adapters.
Note: Always use a fresh wipe or swab for each connector or adapter.
2. If dry cleaning does not produce the desired results, use a small amount of solvent (fast
drying). A non isopropyl alcohol (IPA) solvent is recommended (such as Chemtronics PX
wash).
3. For connectors, apply approximately a dime size area of solvent on a wipe, pass the
connector through the moistened area of the wipe, then make several passes over the dry
area of the wipe. Never re-use an area of the wipe after passing the connector over it.
4. For adapters, apply a small drop of solvent on the swab, gently insert into the adapter’s
ferule until it contacts the connectors end-face, turn the swab three complete turns.
5. If there is a need to moisten a connector end face or adapter, it must be blown dry with
clean compressed air.
