Connecting to PCs, Servers, and Switches

1. Attach one end of a multimode cable segment to the device's MT-RJ connector.

Figure 4-3. Making MT-RJ Fiber Port Connections

2. If the device is a network card and the switch is in the wiring closet, attach the
other end of the cable segment to an MT-RJ modular wall outlet that is
connected to the wiring closet. (See the section "Network Connections.")
Otherwise, attach the other end to an available port on the switch.
3. As each connection is made, the Link LED (on the switch) corresponding to
each port will light to indicate that the connection is valid.

Fiber Optic Devices

An optional slide-in 100BASE-FX module or 1000BASE-LX SFP transceiver may be
used for backbone or remote connections. A 1000BASE-SX or 100BASE-LX SFP
transceiver may also be for connecting to a high-speed server.
Each single-mode fiber optic port requires 9/125 micron single-mode fiber optic
cabling with an SC or LC connector at both ends. Each multimode fiber optic port
requires 50/125 or 62.5/125 micron multimode fiber optic cabling with an SC or LC
connector at both ends.
Warning: This switch uses lasers to transmit signals over fiber optic cable. The lasers are
compliant with the requirements of a Class 1 Laser Product and are inherently
eye safe in normal operation. However, you should never look directly at a
transmit port when it is powered on.
1. Remove and keep the SC port's rubber plug. When not connected to a fiber
cable, the rubber plug should be replaced to protect the optics.
