1 DESCRIPTION
The LSX Preterminated Termination/Splice Panel With Pigtails is an LGX style, rack-mounted
panel that provides a splicing transition between one or more fiber optic cables and a
termination bulkhead for fiber optic patch cords.

In a typical application, the LSX panel serves as a splicing and distribution point to transition
from Outside Plant (OSP) or Intra Facility Cable (IFC) to inbuilding circuits connected to with
patch cords. The panel may be used in either an interconnect or cross-connect configuration,
and in either singlemode or multimode applications.
Figure 1 summarizes the functional components of the LSX termination panel. As shown, an
OSP or IFC cable is routed through the panel to the splice area access door, which serves as a
splice deck. On the splice area rear access door, located on the rear of the panel, the component
fibers are spliced to the internal pigtails. The factory-terminated internal pigtails transition to
the bulkhead, located on the front of the panel. Patch cords installed from the front side of the
panel provide the connection to fiber optic terminal equipment.

The LSX panel is shipped with pre-terminated, factory-installed ribbon or stranded pigtails. The
panel is available in five chassis heights with different numbers of termination positions, as
follows: 1.75-inch high with 12 or 24 termination positions; 3.5-inch high with 48 termination
positions; 7-inch high with 72 or 96 positions; 9-inch high with 144 positions; and 11-inch high
with 288 positions (documented in a separate manual). Figure 2 shows the main external
features of the 7-inch high panel. The 1.75-inch, 3.5-inch, and 9-inch high panels have
analogous features.
Figure 2. Main External Features of 7-Inch High LSX Termination/Splice Panel (Front View)
The features shown are as follows (see Figure 2):
•LGX-Compatible Chassis—is of solid metal construction and painted white. Nine 7-inch
chassis or seven 9-inch chassis may be installed on an LGX frame.
•Bulkhead—holds the pass-through adapters that provide the physical interface between
the connector ends of internal pigtails and patch cords installed on the bulkhead.
•Adapter Pack—6-, 8-, 12- or 24-pack depending on model; mounts in the bulkhead
providing one column of adapters/connectors for terminating patch cords. Connector types
available include singlemode USC, ASC, and UFC, and multimode SC.
•Patch Cord Guides—provide cable management in routing patch cords.
•Removable Front Cover—provides unimpeded access for installation of patch cords.
•Patch Cord Designation Card—is used to record patch cord usage.
•Removable Radius Limiter—provides bend radius protection for the fibers.

•Mounting Brackets—may be oriented for either 19-inch or 23-inch rack mount.
Every LSX Termination/Splice Panel has a rear splice area such as shown in Figure 3 for the 7-
inch panel. The other height panels have analogous features.
Figure 3. LSX Termination/Splice Panel (Rear View)
The main features in the rear splice area are as follows:
•OSP or IFC Cable Clamp—secures cable to chassis.
•Kurley Locks—route and secure cable fibers and internal pigtails.
•Splice Storage Spools—provides service loop storage for cable fibers and pigtails.
•Mass Fusion Splice Chip—splices 24 fiber/pigtail interfaces.
•Splice Area Access Door—folds down providing a horizontal splice deck.
•Cable Ring—routes and secures cable on entry into splice area.
•Ribbon Fanout Bracket—holds one stack of four ribbon fanout chips (if ribbon rather
than stranded pigtails are present).
•Wing Nut—secures the cover (next item) to hold it in place.
•Cover—protects splices once completed.
Each panel is shipped with a cable clamp.

4 UNPACKING THE PRODUCT
Unpack and inspect the LSX panel as follows:
1. Inspect the exterior of the shipping container for evidence of rough handling that may have
damaged the contents of the container.
2. Unpack the panel and associated components and check for possible damage.
3. If damage is detected or if parts are missing, file a claim with the commercial carrier and
then notify CommScope Customer Service. Save the damaged carton for inspection by the
carrier.
4. Save the shipping container for use in case the equipment requires shipment at a future
date.
5 INSTALLATION
The main steps in installing an LSX panel are:
• Mounting the panel on the frame,
• Breaking out the cable to be spliced within the panel,
• Installing the cable on the outside of the panel, and
• Routing the cable within the panel from the cable clamp to the splice deck.
For instructions, refer to the following subsections.
5.1 Installing the Combination Module
Install the panel from the front side of the rack, using the following procedure. Refer to
Figure 7.
Note: For information on how to contact CommScope Customer Service, if needed, refer
to Section 8 in this manual.
Note: Because of its extra depth due to its rear splice area, the LSX panel should be
installed on an LGX fiber distribution frame with a depth of at least 15 inches (38.1 cm).

Figure 7. Installing the Connector Module (23-Inch Rack Shown)
1. Determine the mounting location and rack width, and reposition the mounting brackets if
required:
a. If installing the panel on a 19-inch rack, remove the two mounting brackets and re-
install them using the 19-inch orientation (refer to Figure 4).
b. If installing the panel on a 23-inch rack, install the chassis with the mounting brackets
positioned as shipped.
2. Secure the mounting brackets to the rack front flange using six #12-24 mounting screws.
5.2 Grounding an Armored Cable
When installing an armored cable, a procedure is required, before breaking out the cable, to
sever and ground the armor. A CommScope kit is available for grounding the armor (catalog #
GND-STPKIT). For details, refer to the instructions shipped with the kit (ADCP-90-382).
Note: If jumper retainers are present on the rack, remove the jumper retainers and reinstall
them with the chassis as shown in Figure 7. The jumper retainers may be either LGX or
the CommScope equivalent product.
