Admonishments The precautionary terms used by Corning Cable Systems in its standard recommended procedures confonn to the guidelines expressed in the American National Standards Institute document (ANSI Z235) for hazard alert messages. Alerts are included in this instruction based on the following: DANGER indicates an imminently hazardous situation which, if not avoided, will result in death or serious injury. WARNING indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury.
CAurION indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, !!la.}:: result in minor or moderate injury.
1.
GENERAL Two versions of the Wall-Mountable Interconnect Center (WIC) are available. The WIC-012 accepts two connector panels and the WIC-024 accepts four connector panels. The WIC unit is designed to accommodate two multiple fiber cables and multiple pigtail cables. The doors on both units are secured with a quarter-turn latch. An optional locking kit (pIn HDWR-LOCK KIT, purchased separately) is available when a key lock is desired. Both WIC units accept two Type 4R or four Type 2R splice trays.

INSTALLATION
4.1
WaIl-mounting the WIC Unit If you are installing two WICs in a cross-connect application, install connector panels in only one WIC and fasten the units together, face-to-face, using 8-32 hardware (Figure 3).
Step 1
Select a flat vertical surface to prevent warping. Determine the mounting location.
Step 2 . Open the door and use a pencil to mark the location of the mounting holes on the wall. Mounting hardware is not provided. Step 3
Drive the top two screws in at these locations leaving a 1I8-inch gap between the wall and the screw head.
Step 4
Hang the unit on the screws and tighten the screws.
Step S . Drive the remaining two screws through the mounting holes in the bottom of the unit.
Figure 3 - Cross-connect Con~guration
4.2
Installing Connector Panels Secure the connector panels to the face of the unit using the screws provided with the connector panels. If padlocking is desired, turn one of the panels 180 degrees and install it as shown in Figure 4. Orientation of Connector Panel for Padlock Installation

Installing Preconnectorized Cable NOTE: Fiber optic cable is sensitive to excessive pulling, bending and crushingforces. Consult the cabk specification sheetfor the cable you are installing. Do not bend the cable more sharply than the minimum recommended bend radius. Do not apply more pullingforce to the cable than specified. Do not crush the cable or allow it to kink. Doing so may cause damage that can alter the transmission characteristics ofthe cable - the cable may have to be replaced.
The following steps describe strain-relieving the cable and central member, if applicable. When you are instructed to strain-relieve the cable, refer to this section for instructions on doing so.
4.3.1
Strain-relieve Cable
Step 1
Remove knock-out from unit. Attach the slit grommeting around the edge of the knockout and cut the grommet to fit.
Step 2
Remove the strain-relief bracket from the unit.
Step 3
Secure the cable sheath to the bracket using cable ties (Figure 5).
4.3.2
Strain-relieve Central Member, if necessary
Step 1
Insert the provided screw through the flat M6 washer and the u-shaped washer, then through a hole in the strain-relief bracket.
Step 2
Start the 8-32 hex nut onto the screw and tighten a couple of turns.
Step 3
IT aramid yarn is present, wrap the in a clockwise direction around the screw and beneath the u-shaped washer.
Step 4
Insert the central member between the flat washer and the u-shaped washer and . tighten the 8-32 screwlhex nut assembly.
. Step S
Trim excess central member and yarn as needed .

Route Cable
Step 1
Reinstall the strain-relief bracket in the WIC unit.
Step 2
Route the cable around the radius guides (Figure 6).
Step 3
Clean connectors and install into connector panels.

irritation to eyes on contact. In case ofeye contact, flush eyes with water for at least 15 minutes. Inhalingfomes may induce mild dizziness. In case ofingestion, consult a physician.
NOTE: Obey the following precautions in order not to damage the suiface ofthe connector and make it unusable: • Use a clean tissue soaked in alcohol to gently clean the connector. Do not press heavily on it as you clean. • Dry the connector prior to installation by using a dry tissue or blowing it dry with compressed air. • Clean all areas that will contact the connector adapter. • Do not force the connector into the receptacle. If the connector does not fit easily into the receptacle, back it out and reinstalL

Installing Cable with Buffer Tube Fanout (BTF) Kits 4.4.1
Prepare the Cable CAUTION: The wearing ofsafety glasses to protect the eyes from accidental injury is strongly recommended when handling chemicals and cuttingfiber. Pieces ofglass fiber are very sharp and can damage the cornea easily. CAUTION: The wearing ofsafety gloves to protect handsfrom accidental injury is strongly recommended when using sharp instruments.
Remove cable sheath as shown in Figure 7. Do not expose the bare fiber until you are ready to terminate it.
IMPORTANT: 7ypicallengths are illustrated. Since the actual application may vary, it is recommended to route the buffer tubes as they will lie in the unit to detennine actual strip lengths before cutting fibers.

Install the BTF Kits
&•
WARNING: Cleaved glass fibers are very sharp and can pierce the skin easily. Do not let cut pieces offiber stick to your clothing or drop in the work area where they can cause injury later. Use tweezers to pick up cut or broken pieces ofthe glassfibers and place them on a loop oftape kept for that purpose alone. Good housekeeping is very important.
Install buffer tube fanouts (purchased separately) onto the buffer tubes as described in instructions supplied with the BTF kits. Install the connectors per the manufacturer's instructions.
4.4.3
Strain-relieve the Cable
Strain-relieve the cable and central member, if applicable, as described in Sections 4.3.1 and 4.3.2.

4.4.4
Route the Cable
Step 1
Route the buffer tubes three times around the radius guides.
Step 2
Secure the BTF assemblies in the strain-relief bracket as shown in Figure 8 by sliding the BTF assembly mounting extensions into the slot in the bracket.
Step 3
Install a cable tie to keep the BTF assemblies from sliding out.
Step 4
Route the connectorized fibers around the routing guides (Figure 9).
Step 5
Clean connectors as described in Section 4.3.3 and install into the connector panels.

Installing Cable Using Splice Trays 4.5.1
Determine Orientation of Splice Tray
Place the splice tray on the stud in the unit and route cable to the tray to determine the length required for routing. The orientation of the splice tray is dependent upon the direction of cable entry into the WIC (Figure 10). Splice Tray Orientation for Bottom Entry of Cable into WIC

Install Pigtails
Step 1
Clean connectors as described in Section 4.3.3 and install pigtails into the connector panels.
Step 2
Route the pigtails twice around the radius guides and to the splice tray (Figure 11).
Step 3
Mark the pigtails where they enter the tray. Strip pigtails at this location. Pigtail Routing for Bottom Entry of Cable into WIC

Prepare the Cable
Remove cable sheath as shown in Figure 12. Do not expose the bare fiber until you are ready to terminate it.
IMPORTANT: Typical lengths are illustrated. Since the actual application may vary, it is recommended to route the buffir tubes as they will lie in the unit to determine actual strip lengths before cuttingfibers.

4.5.5
Splice the Cable
Step 1 Step 2
Route at least one full loop of buffer tubes around the radius guides and into the splice tray. Do not bend cable too sharply. Mark the cable where it enters the splice tray.
Step 3 Bring splice tray (pin M67 -110 shown) and fibers to splicer. Step 4 Strip buffer tubes at the mark made in Step 2. Step 5 Secure buffer tubes and pigtails to splice trays as described in the procedure provided with the splice tray. Step 6 Splice buffer tube fibers to pigtail fibers as described for the splicing method you are using (Figure 13 slack loops not shown for clarity).
