Fiber Optic Cable Connections

IPmux-24 uses SFP modules with LC-type fiber optic connectors to provide a fiber optic cable connection
to the network. Third-party SFP optical transceivers must be agency-approved, complying with the local
laser safety regulations for Class 1 laser equipment.

To install the SFP module:

1. Lock the wire latch of each SFP module by lifting it up until it clicks into place as illustrated.

OTE

: Some SFP models have a plastic door instead of a wire latch locking the SFP wire latch.

2. Carefully remove the dust covers from the SFP slot.

3. Insert the rear end of SFP into the socket labeled NET 1, and push slowly until the SFP clicks into

place. If you feel resistance before the connectors are fully mated, retract the SFP using the latch wire
as a pulling handle, and then repeat the procedure.

4. Remove the protective rubber caps from the SFP modules.
