Cleareld’s FieldSmart Fiber Distribution Hub (FDH) PON Cabinet family provides an in-

terconnect environment from the feeder network through the optical passive splitter to the

distribution network. Designed for the outside plant environment, these cabinets provide

a single distribution point to deploy FTTH in urban or dense neighborhoods. Providing

distribution scalability from 12 to 864 ports, network architecture can be maximized for

both existing subscribers as well as future growth opportunities.

The FieldSmart FDH PON Cabinet line is the complete solution for managing 12 to 864 port distribution bers for an outside plant FTTx

PON application. Integrated into the cabinet design is the 12 port Clearview® Cassette, providing multiple cabinet congurations and

allowing the service provider to align the investment in capital equipment to the turn-up of revenue-generating circuits.

The FieldSmart FDH PON Cabinet family incorporates a new pyramid shaped roof/solar shield and a reusable/replacable venting fea-

ture, providing additional protection for deployed ber. Mounting options include pad, pole or vault mounted with either a 4” or 12” riser.

An optional exterior ground box is also available.

The FieldSmart FDH Cross-Connect Cabinet is the complete solution

for managing up to 864 bers in most any feeder/distribution ratio for

an outside plant FTTx application. This solution provides an intercon-

nect environment from the feeder network and the distribution eld in a

FTTH network.

With the Clearview® Cassette as its foundation, the FieldSmart FDH Cross-Connect Cabinet uses the same components

as the FieldSmart Fiber Crossover Distribution System (FxDS) deployed in the central ofce. Optimal access is ensured

to all ports and superior ber protection is integrated within the Clearview Cassette. Through the incremental design of

the Clearview Cassette, user capacity can be scaled from as few as 12 ports to the maximum conguration of the cabinet,

allowing the service provider to align the investment in capital equipment to the turn-up of revenue generating circuits.

The FieldSmart FDH Cross Connect Cabinet family incorporates a new pyramid shaped roof/solar shield and a reusable/

replaceable venting feature, providing additional protection for deployed ber. Mounting options include pad, pole or vault

mounted with either a 4” or 12” riser. An optional exterior ground box is also available.

Cabinet Packaging

All cabinets are packaged for protection for shipment to our customers, depending on the application, packaging may vary.

144 and 288 patch and splice cabinets are typically bubble wrapped and put inside of a cardboard box.

Patch only cabinets with pre-terminated ber tails, as well as the 576 and 864 patch and splice cabinets, will be bubble

wrapped and attached to a pallet.

Risers, if ordered, will typically ship separately (on the top of the cabinet). This is done for installation purposes.

Note: There are multiple items and small parts packaged with every cabinet. When unpackaging cabinets, make sure to

inspect all packaging materials for these items.

Note: 288 cabinet shown in images. 144, 576 and 864 cabinets will be packaged in a similar manner.

Vault Installation

These instructions provide general information useful for vault installation. This guide cannot anticipate all situations that

could develop in the eld. Rather, it represents information applicable to common installation conditions.

Site Preparation:

Ensure that national/local electrical and building codes, as well as OSHA and company safety work rules, are observed and

provisions made for street ags, barricades, and cones. Secure permits as required by the city and company.

WARNING: Buried Telecommunications Cables - Call Before Digging

Excavation:

Plan excavation approximately twelve to sixteen inches (12” - 16”) longer and wider than the actual dimensions of the vault

to be installed. Similarly, excavate six to eight inches (6” - 8”) deeper than the overall dimensions of the vault with the cover

in place.

Note: Vault size is generally dened by the approximate cover dimensions. The vault actual measurements will differ. The

dimensions above for determining the size of the excavation provide sufcient volume for accommodating the maximum

recommended select backll. The volume of excavation would be reduced if a lesser volume of backll material were

chosen. Excavate the hole to appropriate dimensions with a mechanical excavator or hand dig as appropriate. Conrm the

excavation oor is level.

Installation:

Cleareld highly recommends the the installation of a vapor barrier beneath the crushed rock oor of the excavated area. It

is recommended to use a minimum of three to six (3” - 6”) inches of crushed rock to prevent subsidence over time. Gravel is

the recommended material because of its drainage characteristics. The compacted material should be leveled so the top of

the vault is ush to the grade.

Note: Base material shall be crushed rock 3/4” and smaller, and not “river rock” or “round stone.” Desired compaction and

equivalent resistance to lateral loading will not be achieved with round stone. The rock should be free of soil and organic

material.

Install the vault with the cover and support beams in place. Backll the extra excavated material into the gaps around

the vault and compact by hand.
