2 FIST-GR2 Ordering Guide Generic Racks (FIST-GR2) 1. PRODUCT DESCRIPTION The FIST Generic Rack, FIST-GR2, is an all-purpose metal rack designed to accommodate FIST shelves. FIST-GR2 complies with metric ETSI specifications. FIST-GR2 is built around 2 modular units: base frame and side duct, which can be combined to create different lay-outs. Two side duct widths are available (150 mm and 300 mm) to accommodate different patchcord and cable densities.

7 FIST-GR2 Ordering Guide 3. PRODUCT GUIDE 3.1 RACK DESCRIPTION A rack consists of a base frame, side duct(s) and a base duct. For rack layouts see section Base frame The base frame consists of a metal bottom, back and top panel (for side panels and doors see section 3.1.2). Color RAL 7035, with Raychem/Tyco logo and ETSI mounting profiles for shelf back mounting. In case of 19 shelves extension brackets 19 to ETSI should be used for mounting the shelves on the ETSI mounting profiles. Side duct A side duct consists of a bottom, a back, a top and includes a drum plate (explained underneath) (for side panels and doors see section 3.1.2). It is or shall be attached to the base frame. It is used to manage and house cables, pigtails and patchcords that are routed from the rack entry points to the shelves. Depending on the rack width, side duct(s) are included as follows: Rack width Order ref. Left Total width FIST-GR2-XX-XX Rack layout Base frame Right side duct side duct Not for 2.6 m high A Not for 2.6 m high B Not for 2.6 m high Not for 2.6 m high C Not for 2.6 m high Drum plate A drum plate is pre-mounted in a side duct and has preinstalled drums for patchcord routing. (for position of drums in std rack layouts: see section 3.1.1). The VPM (vertical pigtail management system) allows for functional overlength storage of patchcords, in order to be able to reach all adapter positions without the need to take the patchcord out of the base duct. The VPS (vertical pigtail storage) allows for random overlength storage inside the rack (to absorb jumper overlength between ODF and electronics). VPM VPS Issue 1.2 ( ) Page 7 of 17 Product Manager: L.Devooght

8 FIST-GR2 Ordering Guide The drum plate has extension brackets at both ends to accommodate either a drum plate enlarger or a cable attachment plate. drum plate extension brackets Drum plate enlarger The drum plate enlarger allows the installation of additional drums. It exists in 150 mm and 300 mm width. The standard rack (configurations with side ducts) mostly includes drums on the drum plate enlarger for the purpose of the VPM and VPS. (See section 3.1.1). DSC00076.JPG Cable attachment plate Cables enter the rack through the rack top or bottom openings and the cable strength members and cable outer jackets are attached to the cable attachment plate. In the standard kit the cable attachment plate is provided with single cable clamps (for cable mm) and strength member fixations for 5 cables (CAP150) or 11 cables (CAP300). Section shows which side duct has a CAP for each configuration. Note: no CAP nor clamps or strength member fixations included in the kit of a 600 mm rack. Check the FIST-GR2 CAP capacity guide for more information. Base duct The bottom of the base frame contains a pigtail duct system that is used to carry patchcords from one rack side to the other, or from one rack to another in a back-to-back or side-to-side configuration.

Application 1: CAP with C-profile for rigid cable (standard CAP) Usage, capacity and ordering information 3.

19 FIST-GR2 CAP application guide 1. CAP (CABLE ATTACHMENT PLATE) CHANGES OVERVIEW When cables enter a rack through the bottom or top openings, the cable strength members and the cable outer jackets are attached to the cable attachment plate (CAP). The CAP has undergone changes in order to become more universal. Purpose to create a universal CAP, suitable for standard loose tube cable, central core, IFC and breakout cable to allow capacity extension (mounting CAP s on top of each other) C-profile as low as possible in order to gain (working) space Changes C-profile embedded in bottom part of side duct (instead of just above) see pictures 1, 2. This change influences the cable capacity see explanation of different applications underneath. C-profile OLD C-profile is lower NEW PICTURE 1 PICTURE 2 CAP's are mounted parallel to the back panel of the rack (the top of the CAP is mounted using spacers) see pictures 3, 4. Therefore the CAP can be positioned in line with the drumplate of the side duct and cables don t need to be bend between the CAP and the drum plate. In case cables should be guided behind the drum plate, the top spacers should not be used and the CAP will be angle positioned. OLD NEW PICTURE 3 PICTURE 4 Issue 1.0 ( ) Page 2 of 9 Product Manager: L.Devooght

20 FIST-GR2 CAP application guide CAP s can be mounted on top of each other. This allows a higher capacity for cables that can be attached without clamps, just with tie-wraps as IFC, breakout cable and flexible indoor cable see picture 5. PICTURE 5 The different applications of the new universal CAP are described in detail in sections 2 and 3. Section 2 describes the application and capacities of the CAP for rigid cable that can be clamped, section 3 describes the application and capacities of the CAP for intra-facility or breakout cable.

21 FIST-GR2 CAP application guide 2. CAP WITH C-PROFILE FOR RIGID CABLE Usage: rigid cables that allow clamping Capacity & ordering information The C-profile's capacity is reduced: o 150 mm CAP allows the installation of 5 cable clamps (for cable mm) in stead of 6 (theoretical, it has always been difficult to fit 6 clamps on the C- profile, unless very flexible cables) o 300 mm CAP allows the installation of 11 cable clamps (for cable mm) in stead of 12 (theoretical, it has always been difficult to fit 12 clamps on the C- profile, unless very flexible cables) The ability to use double or triple cable clamps compensates the C-profile's lower clamp capacity. Use the capacity tables (following page) to select the proper accessories for cable clamping.

22 FIST-GR2 CAP application guide Ordering information In the standard kit content of a rack with at least one side duct, a CAP is included. Up till now, a 150 mm CAP was accompanied with 6 single cable clamps (for cable mm) and 12 strength member attachments. A 300 mm CAP was accompanied with 12 single cable clamps (for cable mm) and 12 strength member attachments. From now on, the kit will include one CAP and a quantity of single cable clamps (for cable mm) and strength member connections in accordance with the CAP capacity. Thus, for 150 mm side ducts, 5 single cable clamps + 5 strength member fixations and for 300 mm side ducts 11 single cable clamps + 11 strength member fixations. Additional CAP s and cable attachment accessories can be ordered separately. The cable accessories kits have been adapted. A kit includes 1 clamp (single, double or triple) and 1 (2 or 3) strength member fixations according to the clamp type. CAP s: FIST-GR2-CAP mm CAP with C-profile, no clamps, no strength member fixations FIST-GR2-CAP mm CAP with C-profile, no clamps, no strength member fixations CAA s: In order to provide cable accessories kits for different cable diameter ranges and with different clamp types, new descriptions are defined: FIST-GR2-CAA-X-XX/XX Number of cables that can be clamped with one kit (= number of strength member fixations in kit) 1 single cable clamp 2 double cable clamp 3 Triple cable clamp Cable diameter range in mm All cable clamps are available in individual packaging.

24 FIST-GR2 CAP application guide 3. CAP WITHOUT C-PROFILE FOR FLEXIBLE CABLE Usage When using IFC, breakout cable and flexible indoor cable, clamping is not allowed because of the crunching risk. This allows mounting several CAP plates onto each other (using spacers in between). Capacity The number of CAP plates inside the rack is limited to: 2 plates in the rack bottom (limitation due to the pigtail duct) 3 plates in the rack top 4 or 5 plates outside the rack The capacity per CAP plate is shown in the tables on the next page. On each plate, 2 cables are tie-wrapped on top of each other. The capacity of the CAP on the front position is higher because it is not limited by the spacers (which occupy space of the CAP plates in between).
