Important: When an inductive load (a relay, for example) is directly
connected to the output circuit, connect a noise suppressor in the circuit,
parallel with the load.

Table 10A.I lists the connectors used to make the fiber optic connections to
the I/O ring. Each module connected to the system I/O ring has an optical
transmitter and receiver. Fiber optic cables connect transmitters to
receivers to form the I/O ring. Refer to Appendix A for additional
information on fiber optic cables and connectors.
