Sfp+ Cable; Qsfp+ Cable - HP FlexFabric 12900 series Installation Manual

Never bend or curve a fiber when connecting it. After a fiber is installed well, the bend radius must
•
be not less than 40 mm (the minimum dynamic bend radius is 20 D, and the minimum static bend
radius is 10 D. D indicates the outer diameter of dust caps).
• If the fiber has to pass through a metallic board hole, the hole must have a sleek and fully filleted
surface (the filleting radius must be not less than 2 mm). When passing through a metallic board
hole or bending along the acute side of mechanical parts, the fiber must wear jackets or cushions.
Insert and remove a plug with care. Never exert a fierce force to the fiber or plug; otherwise the
•
plug may be damaged or the fiber may be broken. Never pull, press or extrude the fiber fiercely.
