zNID 2800P series FiberJACK ONT installation procedure
1 Select location for the FiberJACK ONT
The location for the FiberJACK ONT should be free of dust and moisture.
The area in front of the FiberJACK ONT should be left open so that there
is sufficient ventilation for the ONT.
Select one of the mounting options, depending on the location for the
wallbox:
– Add a new wallbox and AC circuit.
This method may involve the most construction, but provides the
greatest flexibility.
– Add a new wallbox adjacent to (within 6" of) an existing outlet.
This method is the preferred and simpler solution for most
commercial and hospitality installations when using an "old-work"
wallbox.
– Replace an existing AC outlet with FiberJACK ONT.
This method may be the simplest installation if the location is suitable
and the wallbox is not too full of splices and connectors.
– Add a new wallbox and DC circuit.
The steps presented for the DC powered installation do not require a
licensed electrician, due to the low voltages involved.
2 Provide power to the wallbox
Depending on the power source and wallbox combination use the
following options:
– Providing power to AC powered ONTs, new wallbox, page 46
– Providing power to AC powered ONTs, replacing an outlet in an
existing wallbox, page 48
– Providing power for DC powered ONTs, page 49
WARNING! Installing electrical wires, especially for the AC
installations, may be hazardous and could lead to serious
injury or possibly death. Disconnect power before conducting
the installation. Take all proper precautions or have a
qualified electrician perform the tasks for installing electrical
wiring.
3 Provide fiber to the wallbox
a Run resilient bend-insensitive fiber optic cabling (such as the Corning
4.8mm ClearCurve™ ZBL Drop Cable) to the box
b Route the fiber as desired for the final installation, and then cut the
fiber for proper termination length
The terminated fiber needs to extend 6" (150mm) from the wall.
