For a single link, it is necessary to install connectors on only two fibers at
each end of the link, one for the transmit side and one for the receive side.
For a redundant link, four fibers must have connectors installed at each
end.
To connect the link to the Fiber Remote Multi-IPE Interface at either side
of the link, refer to
Interface unit cable connection diagram" (page 152)
diagram and follow the steps in

Note:
Label optical fibers in the fiber-optic cable next to the ST optical
connectors. Label one fiber XMIT A and its pair RCV A at one end of
the link. Label these two fibers at the other end of the link with opposite
labels; that is, the XMIT A at one end should be labeled RCV A at
the other end of the link and the RCV A at one end should be labeled
XMIT A at the other end of the link. Repeat the same procedure for
the redundant link with XMIT B and RCV B. For an illustration of the
link fibers labelling, refer to
Product description section of this document.

Action
Identify the link ST optical connectors labeled XMIT A and RCV
A for a single link, or labeled XMIT A, RCV A, XMIT B, and RCV
B for a redundant link.
Plug the link ST optical connector labeled XMIT A into the Fiber
Remote Multi-IPE Interface faceplate ST optical connector
labeled XMIT A.
Plug the link ST optical connector labeled RCV A into the Fiber
Remote Multi-IPE Interface faceplate ST optical connector
labeled RCV A.
Repeat steps 2 and 3 for the XMIT B and RCV B if there is a
redundant link.
Route and secure the fiber-optic cable to prevent excessive
bending and other physical damage.
