Installing CAP Ms
Connect the CAP M Cables
Complete the following procedures in the order in which they are presented. Unless otherwise noted, each
procedure is applicable to a singular CAP M (not in a cascade), or to a Primary or Secondary CAP M in a
cascade.
• "Obtain the Required Cable Material” on page 57
• "Connect the CAP M to an RF Antenna” on page 58
• "Connect the CAP M to a Classic CAN or TEN” on page 62
• "Connect a Secondary CAP M (Optional)” on page 62
• "Connect an External Ethernet Device (Optional)” on page 62.
Obtain the Required Cable Material
Contact your local CommScope sales representative to obtain the following components, as required, for this
installation.
• Per the installation plan, obtain either Single Mode Fiber (SMF) or Multi Mode Fiber (MMF) that is of
sufficient length to reach from the CAP M to the Classic CAN or TEN.
• Obtain at least one Optical OCTIS Kit (PN 7770612). All installations require one Optical OCTIS Kit, which
is included in the CAP M shipment. If cascading a Secondary CAP M, a second Optical OCTIS Kit is required.
• Obtain SFP+ Module pairs that are appropriate for this installation. Table 12 identifies the available SFP+
Modules and the maximum range for each.
Do not remove protective caps from any of the connectors until instructed to do so.
