Connecting An Ac Power Cable To The Npt-1020; Connecting Optical Fibers To Optical Modules - Eci Telecom NPT-1020 Installation And Maintenance Manual

NPT-1020 Installation and Maintenance Manual

4.9.2 Connecting an AC Power Cable to the NPT-1020

If the NPT-1020 is fed by an AC source it must be equipped with an AC_PS-B1U module. The connection of
the AC power is described below.
To connect an AC power source to the AC_PS-B1U:
1. Insert the female 3-pin connector into the corresponding connector on the AC_PS-B1U.
2. Connect the plug on the other end of the power cable into the local AC outlet.

4.9.3 Connecting Optical Fibers to Optical Modules

Before installing the NPT-1020 platform and modules, all optical fibers must be routed through the
conduits running along the front supports of the ECI recommended rack into the FST under the NPT-1020
platform being installed, and threaded into the FST. For more information, see
Tray.
All optical fibers in the NPT-1020 platform are connected to the LC connectors on the optical SFP, XFP,
SFP+, or CSFP transceivers on the front panel of the modules.
C
AUTION: Make sure that all the optical connectors are closed at all times with the
appropriate protective caps or with the mating cable connector. Do not remove the protective
cap until an optical fiber is connected to the corresponding connector, and immediately install
a protective cap after a cable is disconnected.
The minimum bending radius of optical fibers is 35 mm. Sharp bending of fibers may degrade
the optical transmission characteristics.
To connect an optical fiber to an SFP module:
1. Push the button on the front panel of the FST to open the latch and pull the FST out towards you.
2. Slowly pull the end of the appropriate fiber to release enough fiber from the tray.
N
OTE: The FST has two opening positions. The tray latches with a click at the halfway position.
If you cannot release the fiber in the halfway position, pull the tray again to open it fully.
3. Thread the end of the fiber through the rack slots to the optical transceiver LC connector on the
designated module. Leave some slack to prevent stress.
4. Thoroughly clean the connectors of the optical fibers using an approved cleaning kit.
5. Remove the cover from the optical transceiver. Connect the fiber connector to the LC connector on
the optical transceiver.
6. Repeat Steps 2 through 5 for all optical modules in the NPT-1020 platform.
7. When you have completed the connection of all optical modules, gently push the FST back into the
rack until it clicks into place.
