8.5 Connecting a FiberĆOptic Cable Between a
StandĆAlone Transceiver and a
RackĆMounted Transceiver
WARNING
TURN OFF AND LOCKOUT OR TAG POWER TO BOTH THE RACK CONTAINING
THE NETWORK COMMUNICATIONS MODULE AND THE TRANSCEIVER
(RACKĆMOUNTED OR STANDĆALONE) BEFORE VIEWING THE FIBERĆOPTIC
CABLE OR TRANSMITTER UNDER MAGNIFICATION. VIEWING A POWERED
FIBERĆOPTIC TRANSMITTER OR CONNECTED CABLE UNDER MAGNIFICATION
MAY RESULT IN DAMAGE TO THE EYE. FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION,
REFER TO ANSI PUBLICATION Z136.1Ć1981. FAILURE TO OBSERVE THIS
PRECAUTION COULD RESULT IN BODILY INJURY.
CAUTION: Do not damage the ends of the fiberĆoptic cable connectors by touching
them or dropping them. Do not use factoryĆcompressed air to clean the fiberĆoptic ports
or connectors because the air may contain impurities that could scratch them. Failure
to observe this precaution could result in damage to or destruction of the equipment.
Use the following procedure to connect a fiberĆoptic cable between
a StandĆAlone Transceiver and a RackĆMounted Transceiver:
Step 1.
Remove the dust caps from the fiberĆoptic ports on the
StandĆAlone and the RackĆMounted Transceivers. Clean
the ports with a lintĆfree cloth moistened with isopropyl
alcohol or a can of compressed air. Save the dust caps.
All fiberĆoptic connectors and ports, when not in use,
should be covered with dust caps.
Step 2. Remove the dust caps from the fiberĆoptic cable's
connectors. Use a lintĆfree cloth moistened with isopropyl
alcohol or a can of compressed air to clean the cable's
connectors.
Step 3. Attach the cable's connectors to the ports as follows:
D PanelĆMounted Transceiver T" port: blue fiberĆoptic
wire
D PanelĆMounted Transceiver R" port: orange
fiberĆoptic wire
D RackĆMounted Transceiver T" port: orange fiberĆoptic
wire
D RackĆMounted Transceiver R" port: blue fiberĆoptic
wire
Note that the fiberĆoptic wires are colorĆcoded. Typically,
the wires are orange and blue. The wires used in your
installation may be of a different color, but they should be
installed in the same manner as described here. Verify
that the transmit connector of one unit is connected to the
receive connector of the other unit. Note that both of the
fiberĆoptic wires are the same.
