Installation and Operation
Fiber Optic Connections
On each VMC or VMCR converter in the frame, remove the dust plug
(shown in
Figure 19 and Figure 20 on page 31 ) from the optical interface on
the module before cabling.
CAUTION Follow fiber optic cautions when handing fiber cable and connectors.
Connect fiber optic cables to the fiber connectors on each module as follows
(
Figure 22 ):
1. For TX (electrical to fiber) modules, connect the fiber optic signal
output connectors to the corresponding TX fiber connectors on the
VMC or MVMC converters.
2. For RX (fiber to electrical) modules, connect the fiber optic input to
corresponding RX fiber connectors on the VMC or MVMC converters.
3. Use the existing cable guides in frame to route the optical fiber to the
rear of unit (
Figure 22 ).
Note More cable guides are provided with the additional parts if needed (see
Figure 15 on page 27 ).
