How to install Panduit FiberRunner FR6ACAB Mounting Bracket

• Before you start, verify you have the FR6ACAB bracket and the appropriate fasteners for your cabinet material and mounting surface. Prepare the workspace and ensure power to nearby equipment is safely managed.
• Position the bracket on the top of the cabinet where you plan to route the FiberRunner runs. Use a measuring tape to determine the desired extension within the 4 1/4" to 9" (108–229 mm) range for level alignment.
• Adjust the bracket to the required length by extending or retracting the mounting arm until the top edge is aligned with adjacent cable pathways and cabinet inlets.
• Secure the bracket to the cabinet top using the appropriate fasteners for your cabinet construction. Ensure the bracket is firmly anchored and level to prevent movement during cable installation or maintenance.
• Attach the FiberRunner channels onto the bracket per Panduit’s installation guidelines. Route 6x4 or 4x4 FiberRunner runs along the bracket, aligning spillouts and tees with cabinet-top inlets to achieve a clean, direct path for fiber cables.
• Check the alignment and bend-radius clearances of all cables. Make any final adjustments to the bracket extension to maintain tidy runs and minimize strain on cables.
