Optical fiber CAUTION: Use the same types of transceiver modules, pigtail cords, patch cords, and fiber cables. If you use single-mode optical fibers, the transceiver modules, pigtail cords, patch cords, and fiber cables must be single-mode.
Page 55 Pigtail cords fall into single-mode (yellow) and multimode (orange), and can also be classified into SC, LC, FC, and so on based on interface type. Fiber connector Fiber connectors are indispensable passive components in an optical fiber communication system. They allow the removable connection between optical channels, which makes the optical system debugging and maintenance more convenient and the transit dispatching of the system more flexible.
Page 56 • Never bend or curve a fiber when connecting it. After a fiber is installed well, the bend radius must be not less than 40 mm or 1.57 in (the minimum dynamic bend radius is 20 D, and the minimum static bend radius is 10 D. D indicates the outer diameter of dust caps). •...
