1000Base-F and 100Base-F fiber installation

Description

This section describes how to route the optical fiber cables from the interconnecting

equipment (for example, an LGX optical fiber distributing frame) to the optical ports on

LNW63, LNW64, LNW67, LNW68, LNW70, LNW74, LNW78 and LNW170 Ethernet

circuit packs. Multi-mode optical fiber is required for LNW67 (1000 Base-F), LNW70

(100Base-F ports), LNW74 (100 Base-F ports) and LNW170 (100Base-F ports). Single-

mode fiber is required for LNW68 (1000 LX), LNW70 (1000Base-F ports),

LNW78(RPR) circuit packs and LNW170 (1000Base-F ports).

The optical fiber cables will be connected to the optical ports after the circuit packs are

installed.

Note:

placed in a protective tube or channel, such as PVC tubing, or PANDUIT cable

channel, when running the cable from the Alcatel-Lucent 1665 DMX High-Capacity

shelf to the cable rack. The fibers should be placed in the cable rack in a protective

channel with nothing on top of them. Cable ties should NOT be used with the optical

fiber cables.

Unterminated optical connectors may emit laser radiation. Do not view an unterminated

optical connector with optical instruments.

Invisible laser radiation when unterminated. Avoid direct exposure of the eyes to the

beam.

Note:

ensure that they are clean. See

cleaning procedures.

Procedure

Refer to the engineering job specification. Determine the function group (slot 1 only)

where the pack will be inserted. The LNW63, LNW64, LNW67, LNW68, LNW70,

LNW74, LNW78 and LNW170 packs can be inserted into any of the function groups (slot
