Important
Never attempt to view optical connectors that might be emitting laser energy.
Do not power up the laser product without connecting the laser to the optical
fiber and putting the cover in position, as laser outputs will emit infrared laser
light at this point.

Connect the Cables

Working carefully, one port at a time, do the following:
1. Verify that you have identified the correct cable for the port.
2. Use an alcohol wipe or other appropriate cleaning agent to clean the cable
connectors; make sure they are free of dust, oil, and other contaminants.
3. If you are using optical fiber cable, align the transmit (Tx) and receive (Rx) connectors
with the correct corresponding connectors on the switch or the I/O module.
4. Press the cable connectors into their mating connectors on the switch or I/O module
until the cable connector is firmly seated.
5. Repeat the preceding steps for the remaining cables on this or other switches or I/O
modules.
6. Dress and secure the cable bundle to provide appropriate strain relief and protection
against bends and kinks.
