  • Page 25: Fiber Connections

    Connect fiber cables from equipment and outside plant fibers to the LC-UPC bulkhead connectors on the CALIENT S320 Photonic Switch Fiber Interface. Connectors without circles on the port number labels are S320 inputs, and connectors with circles on the port number labels are S320 outputs (see Figure 8).
  • Page 26 Document Part Number: 460166-00 Rev. C Figure 8: Circled and non-circled ports As Figure 9 shows, because of the directionality of the S320 monitoring taps, the switch operates with light transmitted from the input fiber terminations to fiber terminations. User optical transmitters are connected to the inputs, and user optical receivers are connected to the outputs.
