MIC-to-MIC Coupler

A separate MIC (Media Interface Connector) coupler is shipped with the
SunFDDI/P 1.0 Adapter product to support MIC-to-MIC network connections.

Two different versions of the coupler are available:

One with raised keys to help you properly orient the connection

One without raised keys, which has specific connecting instructions

Note – Make sure you properly connect the coupler. An improper connection
will “twist” or “cross” the ring.

Cleaning the Fiber Optic Cable

Fiber optic cable connectors can be cleaned if they become contaminated with
dirt, dust or oil, which can cause signal noise on the network.
