Cabling

Cabling

Cabling to the 8949MDA-CXF or 8949MDA-SXF module is done on the
8900WFR-XFR rear module BNCs and the fiber connector when an
optional fiber optic submodule is installed.

Cabling of the rear module depends on presence and type of fiber optic
submodule option listed in

Table 2 on page 16

summarized as follows:

8949MDA-CXF/-SXF with no fiber optic submodule option (electrical
only),

8949MDA-CXF/-SXF with the Dual Receiver fiber optic submodule,

8949MDA-CXF/-SXF with any Dual Transmitter fiber optic sub-
module, and

8949MDA-CXF/-SXF with the Transceiver fiber optic submodule
option.

removed from the cable ends before cabling as described in
