NOTE: Use the following procedure to install the fiber cables using a Fiber Pass-Through Connector.
• If the PRU that you are installing has a Hardened Multi-Fiber Optic
Connector, follow the procedure
in "Option A: Hardened Multi-Fiber Optic Connector” on page 56
• If the PRU that you are installing has a legacy ProAx Connector,
