Mounting a CAP L2 with a Hybrid Fiber Splice Box Kit (optional)

The CAP L2 Hybrid Fiber Splice Box Kit (CommScope PN 7781091-xx) provides a connection solution for

both power and optical signals to a CAP L2. For Fiber CAP L2s, you have the option to use composite cable to

transport signals from a TEN or Classic CAN via fiber and power from a remote DC supply, and then use the

CAP L2 Hybrid Fiber Splice Box Kit to terminate the power and fiber at the CAP L2.

Prepare for CAP L2 Hybrid Fiber Splice Box Kit Installation

1 Follow the steps in "Unpack and Inspect the CAP L2 and Optional Accessories” on page 18.

2 Refer to "Determine the CAP L2 Installation Site” on page 16 to determine the mounting location, which

must be able to support the weight and dimensions of the CAP L.

3 Refer to "Mounting Orientation for Wall Mounts” on page 20 to determine the mounting orientation of the

CAP L2.

The CAP L2 is designed to be supplied by two LPS (Limited Power Source, <100VA) circuits. By using LPS

circuits, some electrical code requirements for installing the power cables are relaxed. The CAP L2

supports a combined/parallel circuit approach. That is, two LPS circuits can be combined in parallel and

the CAP L2 supplied by a single, higher power source. In either configuration, all electrical and safety code

requirements must be followed.

It is the responsibility of the customer/installer to observe the local regulations of the DC service provider

and to comply with Limited Power Source (LPS) requirements where applicable.
