Connect the Cables to the Fiber CAP L2
• If the 50 coaxial cable has a push-pull connector, make sure the cable is seated firmly in the
ANT 1 or ANT 2 connector.
• If the 50
coaxial cable has a threaded connector, torque the connector 5 N-m (3.69 ft-lb). Do not
over-tighten the connector.
f Connect the other end of the 50
coaxial cable to the passive antenna installed in Step b.
2 If necessary, repeat Step 1 on page 40 to connect a 50
coaxial cable to the other ANT connector.
Connect the Optical Fiber
Connecting the optical fiber cable from the hybrid splice box requires removing the CAP L2 cover on the
bottom of the AP.
The optical fiber cable may be connected with or without the optional SFP+ module pair.
1 Install the hybrid splice box on the CAP L2 bracket. See "Mounting a CAP L2 with a Hybrid Fiber Splice
Box Kit (optional)” on page 28.
2 Loosen the eight torque screws on the cover located at the bottom of the CAP L2.
3 Feed the cable from the hybrid splice box through the CAP L2 port, as shown below, and assemble the
OCTIS LC Universal lever and insert it into the CAP L2 port as shown in Figure 3. For OCTIS Universal
connector assembly instructions, see "OCTIS Universal Lever Assembly Instructions” on page 13.
