Connecting the VS-88FO
This section describes how to connect the VS-88FO. The VS-88FO can switch one
of the eight fiber optic inputs to any or all of the eight fiber optic outputs, as the

supplied modules.
All SFP modules (up to eight) must be of the same type: either MSA or
non-MSA.
Only modules Laser Class I acc. 21 CFR 1040 and Class 1 per IEC
60825-1 are allowed in this product.
The following optional SFP modules are tested and approved for use with the
VS-88FO:
SFP-IN/OUT-2KM
– SFP Fiber Optic Module SM 2km 3G HD-SDI Tx/Rx
SFP-IN/OUT-30KM
– SFP Fiber Optic Module SM 30km 3G HD-SDI Tx/Rx
SFP-IN/OUT-40KM
– SFP Fiber Optic Module SM 40km 3G HD-SDI Tx/Rx
To connect the VS-88FO, do the following:
