Connecting Fiber-optic Cable

The fiber-optic cable is not included in the package and must be purchased separately. Purchase a suitable 6-
12 mm diameter, UV-resistant, outdoor rated cable for use with the access point.
To connect a fiber-optic cable to the access point, an SFP transceiver module and a CKIT-OD-SFP
outdoor SFP weathertight strain relief kit are required. They are not included in the package and must
be purchased separately. Refer to the ordering guide of the 670 Series access point for details.
Perform the following steps to connect the fiber-optic cable to the SFP port (E1).
1. Remove the dust cap from the SFP port.
2. Insert the transceiver module into the SFP port, and ensure it is in place.
3. Slide the sealing nut, clip, seals, and gland body over the fiber-optic cable.
4. Insert the connector of the fiber-optic cable into the transceiver module, and ensure the
connector is firmly in place.
5. Thread the gland body into the SFP port, and tighten to a torque of 45 in/lbs (5.0 Nm).
6. Combine the two split seals over the cable, and place them on the gland body.
7. Move the clip towards the gland body, passing over the seals, until the clip properly fits into the
gland body.
