4.6.3. Connection between Neutrik opticalCON DUO Connectors
Affected models:
▪ UBEX-PRO20-HDMI-R100 2xMM-2xDUO
▪ UBEX-PRO20-HDMI-R100 2xSM-2xDUO
Connect multimode or singlemode fiber optical
cables with LC simplex connectors to the Neutrik
opticalCON DUO connectors like in the illustration on
the right.

ATTENTION! Always check the direction of the
optical signal. The Port A must be connected to the
Port B.
4.6.4. Connection between Neutrik opticalCON DUO BiDi Connectors
Affected model:
▪ UBEX-PRO20-HDMI-R100 2xSM-BiDi-DUO
Connect multimode or singlemode fiber optical
cables with LC simplex connectors to the Neutrik
opticalCON DUO connectors like in the illustration on
the right.

ATTENTION! Always check the direction of the
optical signal. The Port A must be connected to the
Port B.

4.7. Connection between F-series and R-series Endpoints
The UBEX F-series endpoint devices are built with SFP+ ports, the R-series devices are built with Neutrik
opticalCON DUO and QUAD fiber optical connections. This section is about how to establish connection
between an F and R-series endpoint device over the different type of connectors.
4.7.1. SFP+ to Neutrik opticalCON DUO
This method is working between the following endpoint models:
F-series endpoint model
UBEX-PRO20-HDMI-F100
UBEX-PRO20-HDMI-F110
Connecting Steps
Step 1. Insert 2 pcs 10GbE singlemode/multimode SFP+ transceiver modules to the SFP+ slots of the F100
/ F110 endpoint device.
Step 2. You need 2 pcs singlemode/multimode Neutrik opticalCON DUO series connectors and 2 pcs
singlemode/multimode fiber optical patch cables with LC duplex connectors. Connect the SFP+
modules and the back of the Neutrik opticalCON DUO connector by the patch cables (a standard LC
duplex connector can be found on the back of the Neutrik opticalCON DUO connector).
TIPS AND TRICKS:
Extra Neutrik
connectors can be assembled to a blank
1U high rack shelf which can make easier
the mounting of the connectors and the
cabling.
Step 3. Establish connection between the additional Neutrik opticalCON DUO connectors and the R100
endpoint device by 2 pcs singlemode/multimode Neutrik opticalCON DUO series cables. The
following figure shows the correct cabling layout of optical connectors on the R100 endpoint device:

ATTENTION!
Always be sure that the fiber optical mode of the entire fiber optical equipment (SFP+
modules, LC patch cables, Neutrik connectors, and cables) and R100 endpoint device are the same.
Connecting to the 2xMM-2xDUO model requires multimode equipment, connecting to the 2xSM-2xDUO model
requires singlemode equipment.
