3.5.2
Connecting a Fiber Optic Segment to the
FE-100FX and FE-100F3
The FE-100FX and FE-100F3 have SC style network ports (see
Fiber Optic Network Connection
1.
Remove the protective rubber covers from the fiber optic ports on the
applicable port on the module and from the ends of the connectors.
NOTES
An odd number of crossovers (preferably one) must be
maintained between like devices so that the transmit port of
one device is connected to the receive port of the other device
and vice versa.
If the fiber optic cable being used has SC style connectors that
do not resemble MIC style connectors, or has SC connectors
on one end and a different type on the other, such as ST
connectors, ensure that the proper crossing over occurs.
!
CAUTION
The FE-100F3 uses Class 1 lasers. Do not use optical
instruments to view the laser output. The use of optical
instruments to view laser output increases eye hazard. When
viewing the output optical port, power must be removed from
the network adapter.
