2.4 Optical Fiber Connection
Most cable manufacturers identify individual fibers in the fiber
cable. Select an appropriate terminated fiber. Each unit’s optical
ports in the system are specified for use with Multimode
(62.5/125 micron) fiber, or Singlemode (9/125 micron) fiber.
Follow the ensuing instructions on installing and connecting
the fiber optic links:
1. Ensure the power is off before proceeding with the fiber
optic cable installation.
2. Prior to connecting the fiber optic cables, remove and save
the dust caps from the optical port of both the 1500E units
and the user’s device. Clean the fiber optic connector and
use lint-free cloth dampened with alcohol to thoroughly wipe
the side and end of the ferrule.
3. Cross-connect the fibers from one unit to the other
connecting the near end 1500E unit’s optical TX port to the
far-end 1500E unit’s optical RX port as illustrated in
Figure 2-9. Observe the type of connector you have and
connect the optical connector by following the instructions
and guidelines from the legend provided in Table 1.
