Physical Interfaces
Connect the signal to the corresponding interface on the module. Insert an EXFO supported transceiver into the
port's slot then carefully connect optical fiber cables to the transceiver IN (RX) and OUT (TX) ports. The
FTBx-88260 module with TA-SFP28 transceiver systems are shown below as examples for connector location
purposes.
