Applying the SynchLink
System
Publication 1756-TD008A-EN-P - August 2002
The following steps outline how to apply the SynchLink fiber optic
cable system.
If you are going to use fiber optic cable in an
IMPORTANT
intrinsically safe area, consult with your local safety
coordinator.
1. Analyze your SynchLink application and choose a
SynchLink topology.
2. Identify the fiber optic cable components that your SynchLink
application requires.
3. Plan the installation of the fiber optic cable components.
4. Install the fiber optic cable system.
5. Power your SynchLink system.

Analyzing your SynchLink Application

When analyzing your current or new SynchLink application, use a
project plan to design your SynchLink fiber optic cable system. If you
are adding new cable segments to an existing installation, create a
design plan for these cable segments and identify their purpose.
By creating a plan and analyzing your design you will be eliminating
the potential for misapplication of media. Use the topologies
described in Chapter 2, SynchLink Topologies to determine your
SynchLink cable system's topology. The system's topology helps you
determine the cable system components needed to meet application
requirements.
