WARNING: Do not look directly into a fiber-optic transceiver or into the
ends of fiber-optic cables. Fiber-optic transceivers and fiber-optic cables
connected to a transceiver emit laser light that can damage your eyes.
CAUTION: Do not leave a fiber-optic transceiver uncovered except when
inserting or removing a cable. The safety cap keeps the port clean and
prevents accidental exposure to laser light.
Insert the cable connector into the cable connector port on the faceplate.
3.
NOTE: The XFP cages and optics on the components are industry standard
parts that have limited tactile feedback for insertion of optics and fiber.
You need to insert the optics and fiber firmly until the latch is securely in
place.
Arrange the cable to prevent it from dislodging or developing stress points. Secure
4.
the cable so that it is not supporting its own weight as it hangs to the floor. Place
excess cable out of the way in a neatly coiled loop.
CAUTION: Avoid bending a fiber-optic cable beyond its minimum bend
radius. An arc smaller than a few inches in diameter can damage the cable
and cause problems that are difficult to diagnose.
CAUTION: Do not let fiber-optic cables hang free from the connector. Do
not allow the fastened loops of a cable to dangle, which stresses the cable
at the fastening point.
