DANGER
Some laser products contain an embedded Class 3A or Class 3B laser
diode. Note the following.
Laser radiation when open. Do not stare into the beam, do not view directly
with optical instruments, and avoid direct exposure to the beam.
1. Read the information in "Handling fiber-optic cables" on page 48.
2. Connect one end of an LC-LC cable to an SFP module in the DS4800. For
instructions, see "Using LC-LC fibre-channel cables" on page 52.
3. Remove the two protective caps from the LC connector end of the LC-SC cable
adapter as shown in Figure 37. Save the protective caps for future use.

5. If you are connecting the DS4800 to a 1-Gbps fibre channel switch or fibre
channel host bus adapter, connect the SC connector end of the LC-SC cable
adapter to a Gigabit Interface Converter (GBIC) that is installed in the 1-Gbps
fibre channel switch or fibre channel host bus adapter. For more information
about connecting to these devices, see the documentation that comes with the
device.
