FOX DA8 Plus Connectors

WARNING: Risk of serious physical injury: This unit outputs continuous invisible

light, which may be harmful to the eyes; use with caution. For additional
safety, plug the attached dust caps into the optical transceivers when the
fiber optic cable is unplugged.

NOTES:

Input LC connectors (on the right) marked with an asterisk (*) in figure 2

(inputs 3, 5, and 7) are functional only when selected as an input using the
DA configuration switch (

item d

). The connector on the right for transceiver

blocks 2, 4, 6, and 8 can never be functional.

Singlemode and multimode devices are not interchangeable. Ensure that

you connect transmitting and receiving devices that are compatible with the
FOX DA8 Plus.

Ensure that you use the proper fiber cable for your system. Typically,
singlemode fiber has a yellow jacket and multimode cable has an orange or
aqua jacket.

In this guide, the term “sending connector” refers to an LC connector on a
device that outputs a fiber optic signal. The term “receiving connector” refers
to an LC connector that receives an optical signal.
