Inserting The Fiber-Optic Cables Into The Im 153-2 Fo - Siemens SIMATIC ET 200M Manual

Reusing Fiber-Optic Cables
Note
If you insert used fiber-optic cables in the plug-in adapter again, you must cut off
the bent lengths of both fiber-optic cable cores and install the Simplex connectors
again.
This avoids any attenuation losses due to parts of the cores of the fiber-optic
duplex cables being bent again and overstressed.

Inserting the Fiber-Optic Cables into the IM 153-2 FO

Insert the fiber-optic cables and attached plug-in adapters into the IM 153-2 FO.
Move the protruding handle of the plug-in adapter upwards.
Make sure the positioning is correct: the sender fiber-optic cable is plugged into the
recipient socket and the recipient fiber-optic cable is inserted into the sender
socket of the fiber-optic interface of the IM 153-2 FO.
If the IM 153-2 FO is the last node in the fiber-optic network, you must close the
unoccupied fiber-optic cable interface with filler connectors (the connectors are
already in place when the IM 153-2 FO is delivered).
Caution
!
Do not look directly into the opening of the optical sender diodes.
The light beam could damage your eyes.
