To connect a fiber-optic cable to
a transceiver:
1. For fiber-optic transceivers,
remove the plastic dust covers
from the cable connectors and
from the transceiver port.
2. Press the connector into the jack
so that the tabs on the connector
slide into the notches in the jack
and the connector snaps securely
into place.
3. If you are using cable with SC duplex connectors, as shown in the
illustration, both cables are connected simultaneously. If the cable has
simplex connectors, install them one at a time and make sure that the
cable connected into the Tx (transmit) port on the transceiver is
connected into the receive port on the device at the other end of the
cable; similarly, make sure the Rx (receive) port on the transceiver is
connected to the transmit port on the other device.
To connect a twisted-pair cable
to a transceiver:
Push the RJ-45 plug into the RJ-45
jack until the tab on the plug clicks
into place.
When power is applied to this transceiver
and an active network cable is connected to
the transceiver port, the Link LED for the
port should be ON.
If the LED is off, see "Troubleshooting", on
the next page.
