2.4 Cable connecting info
2.4.1 Fiber cabling:
Insert the fiber optic cable into the LC type connector so that the self-locking tab
clicks into position. Connect the opposite end to a 1000Base-SX switch. Ensure that
the TX port of the adapter is connected to the RX port of the switch, and RX to the
TX, check the red light from RX port. The maximum length is typical:
