Admonishments
Important safety admonishments are used throughout this manual to warn of possible hazards to
persons or equipment. An admonishment identifies a possible hazard and then explains what
may happen if the hazard is not avoided. The admonishments — in the form of Dangers,
Warnings, and Cautions — must be followed at all times. These warnings are flagged by use of
the triangular alert icon (seen below), and are listed in descending order of severity of injury or
damage and likelihood of occurrence.
Danger: Danger is used to indicate the presence of a hazard that will cause severe personal
injury, death, or substantial property damage if the hazard is not avoided.
Warning: Warning is used to indicate the presence of a hazard that can cause severe personal
injury, death, or substantial property damage if the hazard is not avoided.
Caution: Caution is used to indicate the presence of a hazard that will or can cause minor
personal injury or property damage if the hazard is not avoided.
General Safety Precautions
Danger: Wet conditions increase the potential for receiving an electrical shock when installing
or using electrically-powered equipment. To prevent electrical shock, never install or use
electrical equipment in a wet location or during a lightning storm.
Danger: Do not look into the ends of any optical fiber. Exposure to laser radiation may result.
Do not assume the laser power is turned-off or that the fiber is disconnected at the other end.
Danger: Use adequate lifting equipment when moving or installing FDH cabinets. Verify that
the maximum lift weight rating of the equipment is sufficient to handle the weight of the cabinet.
Danger: Do not stand under a FDH cabinet as it is being hoisted into position for mounting. A
failure of the lifting equipment or apparatus could result in serious personal injury.
Warning: Before digging, check with all local utilities for the presence of buried cables or
pipes. Contact with underground cables or pipes, especially electric power cables and gas
service lines, could interrupt local utility service and cause serious personal injury and
extensive property damage.

BEFORE STARTING THE INSTALLATION
This section provides general installation considerations, unpacking and inspection procedures,
and lists the tools and materials required for cabinet installation.
2.1
Installation Overview
Installation of the pedestal-mount cabinet involves the following main tasks:
Installing a Support Base–The cabinet must be mounted on a suitable support base. The
following two mounting options are available:
• Fiberglass Mounting Sleeve (FMS)–The FMS is a rectangular sleeve that mounts in the
ground. The FMS provides a stable mounting platform plus storage space under the
cabinet for OSP cable slack. The FMS may also be used as a splicing vault for the OSP
feeder and distribution cables.
• Poured Concrete Pad–Concrete slab with Pad Mounting Frame (PMF). The PMF
provides a stainless-steel frame that is embedded in the concrete during installation of the
slab. The cabinet attaches to the PMF which holds it securely to the concrete slab.
Mounting the Cabinet–After the support base is installed, the cabinet must be secured to the
support base. An isolation gasket must always be placed between the support base and cabinet.
The OSP feeder and distribution cables must be uncoiled and routed to a separate splice
enclosure (not provided) before the cabinet is secured to the support base.
Feeder and Distribution Cable Routing and Splicing–The attached OSP feeder and
distribution cables must be routed to a separate splice enclosure (not provided) and spliced to
the system OSP cables.
Page 8

ADCP-96-005 • Issue 2 • December 2004
Splitter installation–The cabinet is equipped with a single splitter module that is spliced to
OSP feeder cable fiber #1. If additional splitters are required, they must be mounted in the
cabinet and the splitter input leads must spliced to the OSP feeder cable.
Splitter Output Fiber Connections–Service is enabled by connecting the splitter output fiber
connectors to the subscriber distribution ports. Unused output fibers are temporarily “parked” in
the storage panel until they are needed for service.
2.2
Unpacking and Inspection
This section provides instructions for opening the shipping boxes, verifying that all parts have
been received, and verifying that no shipping damage has occurred.
Use the following procedure to unpack and inspect the cabinet and all accessories:
1. Open the shipping carton(s) and carefully unpack the cabinet and any accessories from the
protective packing material.
2. Open the cabinet door (requires 216B key tool) and check for broken or missing parts. If
there are damages, contact ADC (see Section 10) for an RMA (Return Material
Authorization) and to reorder if replacement is required.

MOUNTING THE PEDESTAL-MOUNT CABINET ON A FIBERGLASS MOUNTING SLEEVE
The FMS-20000, shown in Figure 3, is a fiberglass and polymer concrete sleeve that may be
used to support the cabinet at ground level. The FMS may also be used as a splicing vault. Four
vertical racks are molded into the sides of the FMS to accommodate removable rungs (not
provided). The rungs provide support for splice cases or OSP cable storage.
3.1
Installation Recommendations
The site chosen for the installation must conform to all local codes and any permits required
must be obtained prior to the start of installation. The location must be accessible and provide
adequate parking for worker and vehicle safety. The FMS should be located near the trench that
was used for routing the OSP fiber cables for the system. The basic cabinet is equipped with
either a 12 or 24 fiber (option) feeder cable and a 216-fiber distribution cable.
The installed cabinet must not create a visual or physical obstruction to vehicular or pedestrian
traffic. Ensure that there is sufficient space on all sides to facilitate cabinet installation.
Depending on the landscaping requirements, the top surface of the mounting sleeve may be
located from 0 to 4 inches (10.2 cm) above the surrounding grade.

Placement of the FMS
Danger: Use adequate lifting equipment when installing the FMS. Do not stand in the hole while
placing the FMS in position. An unexpected shift of the FMS could result in personal injury.
Use the following procedures to place the FMS into the excavation.
1. Fill the bottom of the hole with stone aggregate, tamping it as it is filled to build a 12 inch
(30.5 cm) layer with a level surface. The stone aggregate will provide a stable base to
support the FMS.
Page 12
© 2004, ADC Telecommunications, Inc.
ADCP-96-005 • Issue 2 • December 2004
Note: Use crushed rock 3/8-inch or less in size mixed with stone dust (per local practice)
to fill the hole. The name of the material may differ in different geographical areas.
Possible names are Class 5, stone dust, aughts (0s) and ones (1s), or stone aggregate
2. Use appropriate lifting equipment to place the FMS into the center of the hole. Lifting
loops are provided on either side of the FMS for attaching a sling or chain.
3. Use a carpenter’s level to verify that the FMS is level. If it is necessary to add or remove
fill for leveling, tamp any added fill to maintain the base stability.
3.4
Cable Conduit Installation
Select the conduit entrance hole(s) for the OSP feeder and distribution cables. Refer to Figure 4
for the location of the holes. If necessary, additional conduit entrance holes may be cut using a
power drill and hole saw. Place and route the conduit into the entrance hole(s). If preferred, the
FMS may be installed without conduit. The OSP cables may be routed out of the FMS at any
point that is convenient. Cut the cable exit hole to match the size of the cable.
3.5
Grounding System Installation
Install a grounding system (not provided) that meets all local electrical codes. Check local codes
for grounding system installation, use of clamps, wire size, and any other grounding
requirements. Typically, #6 AWG copper wire is used for the grounding wire. Install the
grounding system inside the FMS where it will not interfere with the conduit or cables. Connect
the grounding wire to the grounding system. Leave sufficient slack in the grounding wire to
allow it to be routed into the cabinet as the cabinet is being mounted on the sleeve.
3.6
Back Fill
If installing conduit, hand shovel stone aggregate under the conduit to avoid damage from the
power tamper. Complete the back fill as follows:
1. Add stone aggregate evenly around the FMS and tamp. Fill to approximately 6 inches
(15.2 cm) from the top of the excavation.
2. Complete the back-fill with crushed rock or topsoil depending on the landscaping
requirements. The top surface of the mounting sleeve may be located from 0 to 4 inches
(10.2 cm) above the surrounding grade (see Figure 4).
3.7
Mounting the Cabinet on the FMS-20000
Use the following procedures to mount the ACE-102V pedestal-mount cabinet on the FMS.
Refer to Figure 5 as necessary during the installation.
Warning: Use appropriate lifting equipment when moving or installing the cabinet. Do not
stand under a cabinet as it is being hoisted into position for mounting. A failure of the lifting
equipment could result in serious personal injury.

MOUNTING THE PEDESTAL-MOUNT CABINET ON A CONCRETE PAD
The Pad Mount Frame (PMF), shown in Figure 8, is a stainless steel frame that provides a
mounting base for the cabinet when installed in a concrete pad foundation.
Caution: Mounting the cabinet directly on a concrete pad may cause chemical corrosive action
to the cabinet. Use only the Pad Mount Frame (PMF) as a mounting base for the cabinet. Do
not use caulking compounds as a sealer between the cabinet and PMF.

Installation Recommendations
The site chosen for the installation must conform to all local codes and any permits required
must be obtained prior to the start of installation. The location must be accessible and provide
adequate parking for worker and vehicle safety. Situate the concrete pad along the trench that
was used for routing the OSP fiber cables for the system. The basic cabinet is equipped with a
12 or 24 fiber (option) feeder cable and a 216-fiber distribution cable.
The installed cabinet must not create a visual or physical obstruction to vehicular or pedestrian
traffic. Ensure that there is sufficient space on all sides to facilitate cabinet installation.
Depending on the landscaping requirements, the top surface of the concrete pad may be located
from 0 to 3 inches (7.6 cm) above the surrounding grade.
4.2
Cable Conduit Installation
Install the cable conduit from below as shown in Figure 9 and position it so that the top of each
upward bend will be located within the PMF opening at the indicated point. When installed, the
top of the conduit should be located 1 to 2 inches (2.54 to 5.08 cm) below the top of the finished
concrete pad. Install the conduit before pouring the pad.
4.3
Base Installation
Prepare a base for the concrete pad that meets all local code requirements. The base must have a
footing of 4 to 6 inches (10.2 to 15.2 cm) of sand or gravel on firmly compacted soil. Refer to
the construction diagram (see Figure 9) for details.

Concrete Pad Construction
Use the following procedure to construct the concrete pad:
1. Build a wood form for the concrete pad using 2 x 6 framing lumber as shown in Figure 10.
2. Locate the PMF as shown in the construction diagram (see Figure 9). When installed, the
top surface of the PMF must be flush and level with the top of the concrete pad.
Note: Use temporary top framing to keep the top surface of the PMF flush and level with
the top of the concrete pad (see Figure 10).
3. Place reinforcing material inside the form but outside of the PMF.

4. Verify that the PMF and form are level. Depending on the landscaping requirements, the
top surface of the concrete pad may be 0 to 3 inches (0 to 7.6 cm) above the final grade. The
weld nuts are covered with plugs which must be left in place until the enclosure is mounted.
5. Pour the concrete to form the pad but do not pour concrete into the center area of the PMF.
Note: Allow some concrete to flow under the flanges on the bottom of the PMF so the
PMF will be locked in place when the concrete hardens. However, do not allow concrete to
fill the center of the PMF. If necessary, partially fill the center of the PMF with sand or
gravel to prevent an inflow of concrete.
6. Remove the top framing and the temporary support wires when the concrete is ready to be
finished.
7. Allow concrete to cure before proceeding with the installation.

Grounding System Installation
Install a grounding system (not provided) that meets all local electrical codes. Check local codes
for ground system installation, use of clamps, wire size, and any other grounding requirements.
Typically, #6 AWG copper wire is used for the ground wire. If the ground system includes a
ground rod, install the rod (see Figure 9) within the PMF opening at the indicated point. The top
of the rod should be located 1 to 2 inches (2.54 to 5.08 cm) below the top of the finished concrete
pad. Connect the grounding wire to the grounding system. Leave sufficient slack in the grounding
wire to allow it to be routed into the cabinet as the cabinet is being mounted on the pad.
4.6
Mounting the Cabinet on the Concrete Pad
Use the following procedures to mount the cabinet on the concrete pad. Refer to Figure 11 as
necessary during the installation.
Warning: Use appropriate lifting equipment when moving or installing the cabinet. Do not
stand under the cabinet as it is being hoisted into position for installation. A failure of the lifting
equipment could result in serious personal injury.
1. Remove the plastic plugs that are installed in the threaded corner holes and clean off any
concrete that may have adhered to the top of the PMF.
Note: Make sure all remnants of concrete are removed from the PMF prior to mounting
the cabinet. It is not necessary to use shims to level or align the cabinet as long as the top
surface of the PMF is clean and free of any installation debris.
2. Place the isolation gasket (provided with cabinet) on the PMF and align the holes in the
gasket with the holes in the PMF. Make sure the “CABINET FRONT” side of the gasket
(look for markings on gasket) is on the side of that corresponds to the door side of the
cabinet.
3. If a ground spacer (optional accessory) will be installed, place the spacer in position for
mounting on the PMF. The isolation gasket installed in step 2 should remain in place
between the PMF and ground spacer. If a ground spacer will not be installed, proceed to
step 6.
4. Align the mounting holes in the spacer with the mounting holes in the PMF.
5. Secure the spacer to the PMF using the four capscrews, four lock washers, and four flat
washers provided with the spacer. Tighten all capscrews securely.
6. Using appropriate lifting equipment, hold the cabinet in position for mounting over the
PMF or spacer.
Danger: Do not stand directly under the cabinet as it is being hoisted into position for cable
installation. A failure of the lifting equipment could result in serious personal injury.
7. Carefully route the attached OSP feeder and distribution cables (see Figure 6) into the
conduit and pull each cable through to the splice enclosure.
Note: A separate splice enclosure (not provided) is required for splicing the cabinet OSP
feeder and distribution cables to the system OSP feeder and distribution cables.

pull through several feet of slack.
9. Lower the cabinet onto the PMF or spacer and align the mounting holes in the cabinet with
the threaded holes in the PMF or spacer.
10. Secure the cabinet to the PMF or spacer using the four capscrews, four lock washers, and
four flat washers provided. Tighten all four capscrews securely.
11. Tear off the perforated edge strips located on the left and right sides of the installed
isolation gasket and discard.
12. Attach the ground wire to the grounding lug located on the lower front side (see Figure 7)
of the cabinet. The grounding lug can be used for #6 – #14 AWG wire. Tighten the ground
lug set screw securely.
13. The lifting eyes may be left in place or removed from the cabinet. To remove the lifting
eyes, use the security key tool (accessory) to remove the lifting eye screws. Store the
lifting eyes inside the cabinet and then re-install the lifting eye screws in the cabinet.

FEEDER AND DISTRIBUTION CABLE CONFIGURATION INFORMATION
The ACE-102V pedestal-mount cabinet is equipped with OSP feeder and distribution cables
that enter/exit the cabinet from the bottom. Both cables must be spliced to the system feeder and
system distribution cables at a separate splice enclosure (not provided). Depending on the
option ordered, the feeder and distribution cables may be either 25 or 100 feet (7.6 or 30.5
meters) in length. The following sections describe how the cables are configured for splicing.
5.1
OSP Feeder Cable Configuration
The OSP feeder cable is a ribbon-type cable that may have fiber count of 12 or 24 fibers. At the
entry/exit point to the cabinet, the feeder cable is secured with a pair of clamps. Beyond the
clamps, the outer sheath of the cable is removed to expose the fiber ribbon. For protection, the
fiber ribbon is inserted into a flexible clear plastic tube. The clear plastic tube and the enclosed
fiber ribbon are routed to the splice tray panel at the top of the cabinet. A diagram of the feeder
cable configuration is shown in Figure 12.

SPLITTER MODULE INSTALLATION
The ACE-102V cabinet can accommodate up to eight 1x16 or 1x32 splitter modules. Each
splitter module provides a single non-connectorized input fiber which must be spliced to the
feeder cable. Each splitter module also provides either sixteen or thirty-two connectorized
output fibers. The output fibers connect to the distribution ports to provide service to
subscribers. The cabinet provides a maximum of 216 optical ports for the distribution of optical
services. Use the following procedure to install additional splitters in the cabinet:
1. Install the splitter module in the next available mounting position as shown in Figure 16.
Note: Install splitters in the order shown in Figure 16, beginning on the lower right side of
the splitter compartment and then working from the bottom to the top.
2. Route the splitter output fibers to the connector storage panel or to the designated
customer port. Refer to Section 7 for the routing procedure.
3. Route the splitter input fiber to the splice panel at the top of the cabinet.
4. Open the splice panel drawer and coil up the splitter input fiber around the splice tray for
temporary storage. Refer to Section 8 for the routing procedure and the feeder cable and
splitter input fiber splicing procedure.

ROUTING AND CONNECTING THE SPLITTER OUTPUT FIBERS
The splitter modules are mounted near the top of the ACE-102V cabinet. When a splitter
module is initially installed, the output fibers are routed to the storage panel located at the
bottom of the cabinet. At the storage panel, the output fibers are temporarily “parked” until they
are needed. Service to a subscriber is enabled by removing an unused output fiber from the
storage panel, routing it to the appropriate connector panel, and then connecting it to the
subscriber port.
7.1
Storing The Splitter Output Fibers
Use the following procedure to store the splitter output fibers:
1. Following installation of a splitter module, route each output fiber over the specified spool
on the right side of the cabinet as shown in Figure 17 and Figure 18.
2. Locate an unused connector pack slot on the storage panel.
3. Insert the connector pack into the unused slot in the storage panel. Refer to the ACE
Cabinet Splitter Installation Guide (ADCP-96-033) provided with the splitter module for
additional information on installing connector packs in the storage panel.
4. Use the slack storage spools on the right side of the cabinet to store any excess fiber slack.

Enabling Service To a Subscriber
Use the following procedure to enable service to a subscriber:
1. Check the designation labels on the cabinet door to determine the connector panel number
and distribution port number that correspond to the address of the subscriber.
2. Locate the subscriber port on the specified connector panel and remove both the adapter
dust cap and the connector ferrule dust cap.
3. Select and remove an unused splitter output fiber from the storage panel and carefully
work it free of any other fibers.
4. Remove the ferrule dust cap from the connector and then clean the connector as specified
in the Optical Fiber Connector Wet and Dry Cleaning Instructions (ADCP-90-159).
5. Hold the output fiber connector near the subscriber port.
6. Route each output fiber over the specified spool on the right side of the cabinet as shown
in Figure 19 and Figure 20. Use the slack storage spools on the right side of the cabinet to
store any excess fiber slack.
7. Insert the output fiber connector into the connector panel port adapter.

GUIDELINES FOR USING THE SPLICE DRAWER AND MINI SPLICE TRAYS
This section provides guidelines for using the splice drawer and the mini splice trays that are
installed in the splice drawer. On an optional basis, the ACE-102V cabinet is equipped by the
factory with either a 12 or 24 fiber feeder cable and a single splitter. The feeder cable optical
fiber subunit is routed into the splice drawer and fiber #1 (blue) is spliced to the input fiber of
splitter module #1. When addition splitter modules are installed, the splitter input fibers must be
routed into the splice drawer for splicing to the spare feeder cable fibers.
Use the following procedures to route additional splitter input fibers into the splice drawer and
to prepare the input fibers for splicing:
8.1
Opening The Splice Drawer
To open the splice drawer, push the drawer release tabs inward and with both hands, pull the
drawer straight out as far as it will go as shown in Figure 21. The splice drawer will lock into the
open position.
Caution: The maximum loading force that may be applied to a fully extended splice drawer
must not exceed 12 lbs. Exceeding the maximum specified loading force will cause permanent
damage to the splice drawer components.

splice tray and the attached optical fibers in the splice drawer. Coil all excess fiber slack
around the center of the splice drawer.
10. Use the rubber strap released in step 5 to secure the splice trays to the splice drawer.
11. Verify that all fibers are properly stored within the splice drawer and that no kinks or
excessive bends occur as a result of the fiber routing within the drawer.
8.3
Closing The Splice Drawer
To close the splice drawer, release the latch by pressing downward on the latch tab (see Figure
21). Verify that all optical fibers are properly secured and located below the top surface of the

MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR PROCEDURES
The ACE-102V pedestal-mount cabinet requires no regular maintenance to insure continuous
and satisfactory operation. Maintenance is limited to repairing or replacing any cabinet
components that may be damaged or broken in the course of normal operation. The following
sections provide procedures for repairing or replacing common cabinet components.

Painting
Brush-in-cap type bottles of paint are available (see Table 2) for touching-up nicks and
scratches in the factory coat of paint. Lightly sand the area to be painted and then clean it
thoroughly to remove any dirt, dust, or foreign matter. Shake the paint bottle until thoroughly
mixed and then apply a light coat of paint to the damaged area using the small brush attached to
the cap. Wait until the paint is dry and then apply a second coat if necessary. When finished
painting, replace the paint bottle cap and tighten securely.
9.2
Adapter Replacement
Replacement adapters are available (see Table 2) for the connector panels. Use the following
procedure to remove and replace a damaged adapter:
