Enclosure Installation Methodology
1.0 The Opt-X Splice Module is designed as a front
access device for installation and maintenance.
Leviton Opt-X Ultra (part number 5RxUH) and Opt-X 1000i
(part numbers 5R1UM-S03, and 5R2UM-S06) enclosures
will allow for use with rear access by removal of the sliding
tray.
All other Opt-X fiber enclosures will require the installation
of the module from the front.
NOTE: To assure optimal installation and future
expansion, requires proper planning for cable slack
and management within the module and enclosure.
Figure 1
2.0 Identify components of the Opt-X Splice Module
kit. (See Figure 1)
1. Base – is the main component of the Splice
Module. It houses the splicing deck and covers
and is used for storage of pigtail cable and
incoming cable (either 250um or 900um).
2. Splice Deck – is where the fusion splicing and
cable routing is accomplished. It is also where the
splice chips are located.
3. Top Cover – is the protective cover for the pigtails
and splicing area. It is removed by releasing the
two (2) plunger grommets and sliding to the rear
of the Module.
4. Bottom Cover – is used to house and protect the
Figure 2
incoming cable. It is removed by releasing the
two (2) plunger grommets and sliding to the rear
of the Module.
5. Accessory Pack – contains 40mm heat shrink
stranded fiber splice sleeves (26 each), tie wraps
(8 each), and 250um fiber protective mesh sleeve
(36 inches).
Splice Module Preparation
3.0 Tools and supplies required for the installation and
splicing of the Leviton Opt-X Splice Module will be
determined by the installer and as recommended by the
fusion splicer manufacture.
3.1 Remove the top and bottom lids by unlatching the
Figure 3
plunger grommets and sliding the lids rearward, and then
set aside for future use.
3.2 Remove the splice deck by lifting the front edge.
(See Figure 2) Lift out of the base and set aside.
3.3 Set the module base on a flat surface where the
splicing will be done.
3.4 Uncoil the pigtail set from the pigtail storage area. If
this is a 24 fiber module, organize into 12 fiber groups
based upon splicing requirements or color-coded order.
The pigtails are organized in the adapters in compliance
with ANSI/TIA 568-C.3 duplex polarity arrangement. (See
Figure 3)
Figure 4
3.5 Determine which side of the Opt-X Splice Module your
incoming cable will enter the bottom storage area. This
side of the module is where you will secure the pigtail
fibers to the base using a tie wrap provided.
(See Figure 4)
3.6 Place the pigtail fiber group/s outside of the side
retention organizer of the base. (See Figure 1)
3.7 Extend the pigtail fibers outside the base.
3.8 Place the splice deck and base with the rear of both
facing each other. (See Figure 5) When terminating the 12-
fiber Opt-X Splice Module, place the splice deck
approximately 9 inches to the rear and parallel with the
base. For the 24-fiber Opt-X Splice Module, place the
splice deck approximately 4 inches to the rear.
INCOMING FIBER CABLE PREPARATION
3.9 Measure 36 inches from the end of the cable and mark
the cable. This is the amount of outer sheath that needs to
be removed.
Figure 5
4.0 If using loose tube fiber cable, use the included mesh
sleeve to protect the 250um fibers.
4.1 Secure the incoming cable on the bottom of the splice
module base. (See Figure 5)
FUSION SPLICING PREPARATION
4.2 Follow preferred fusion splicing fiber strand preparation
methodology and fusion splicer manufacture guidance.
Recommended organization (See Figure 6)
Note: To avoid damage to the spliced fiber, install splice
sleeves into the splice holder with strengthening rod in the
down position.

SPLICE DECK INSTALLATION INTO MODULE
BASE
4.3 Lift the splice deck and rotate 180°. Coil the pigtail
fiber, using a figure 8 method, in the base storage area
and route the pigtail fiber as desired in the splice deck.
(See Figure 7 & 8)
4.4 Insert splice deck into base by placing the rear tabs
into the slots in the base and then lowering the front.
(See Figure 9 & 10)
NOTE: Caution should be taken to assure that the
fibers in the storage area are not crushed and that
the splice deck is fully seated in the base.
Figure 7
4.5 Place the top cover on the base and secure with the
(2) plunger grommets.
STORAGE OF INCOMING FIBER CABLE SLACK
4.6 Secure the incoming fiber exiting from the splice deck
to the storage area. (See Figure 11)
4.7 Coil the incoming fiber and using a figure 8 method, in
the bottom base storage area route the fiber as desired in
the splice deck. (See Figure 12)
NOTE: Assure that the fiber is routed so that it is within
the bottom cover guide. (See Figure 1) This will
assure the module will clear the normal splice tray pin
in the enclosure.
Figure 8
4.8 Place the bottom cover on the base and secure with
the plungers and grommets.
