4.7.2 Fiber Optic Ports

Depending on the order code of the product, the RS416 can be equipped with several different
types of fiber optic ports. The Transmit (TX) and Receive (RX) connections of each port must be
properly connected and matched for proper link and operation. Modules populated on the top row
of the device typically have locking mechanisms or tabs towards the top of the unit. Modules
located on the bottom row of the device have locking mechanisms or tabs towards the bottom of
the device.

The drawings in the following figures show each fiber optical connector style with a side and top
view to allow the user to identify the proper cable connection orientation. If modules are populated
on the bottom row of the device, the transceiver orientation will be reversed (i.e. RX and TX will be
reversed).
