Page 5: Introduction
1 Introduction The ViaLite 100Mb/s Ethernet Optical Transceiver and 10/100/1000Mb/s Ethernet Optical Transceiver are optically coupled link systems that offers a way to incorporate fibre into a Ethernet network, allowing implementation of a transparent Ethernet segment over long distances and in electrically noisy or secure environments. -
Page 6: Setting Up & Understanding The Transceiver
2.1 Physical Layout of the Transceiver The plug-in modules are designed for use in PPM’s ViaLite 19” rack chassis. The module is powered from the rack chassis backplane and all connections are on the rear panel of the Transceiver (see below). -
Page 7: Fibre Optic Cable & Connectors
2.2 Fibre Optic Cable & Connectors 2.2.1 Connector and Cable Types All ViaLite Ethernet Transceiver modules use singlemode (9µm/125µm) cable terminated with either FC/APC or E2000/APC optical connectors. Cross-site fibre optic cables are available from PPM as either standard patch leads or heavy-duty multicore cables. - Page 8 Warning! It is possible to tighten the knurled collet without aligning the lug and gap. This will result in poor light transmission. Check that the lug and gap are aligned before tightening the knurled collet. Figure 1 (a) showing FC/APC connector with dust cap removed, (b) showing alignment of the lug on the side of the ferrule, which must match the gap in the receptacle shroud before gently pushing the plug home and finger tighten the knurled collet nut onto the threaded receptacle.

Page 9: Minimum Bend Radius
Because the optical fibre is made of glass, it is important not to subject it to excessive stress. For this reason, each type of cable has a minimum bend radius (MBR) specification, beyond which the cable cannot be bent without permanent damage occurring. MBR specifications for PPM fibre are given in the ViaLite System Handbook Lxx-HB. -
Page 10: Using The Ethernet Optical Transceiver
An Ethernet connection is made to each Transceiver at the respective D-connector on the rear of the ViaLite 19” rack chassis, via the RJ45 to D-connector adapter cable together with the RJ45 coupler. Two fibre optic cables are necessary for the operation of the Ethernet Optical Link. Connect the optical fibre connector marked T on one module to R on the other module, and vice-versa. - Page 11 10/100/1000Mb/s Auto Switching Ethernet Optical Transceiver Function Illuminates to indicate power supply to the Transceiver. Steady ON when port is running at 1000Mb/s (default). LINK OFF when port is running at 10/100Mb/s. Fibre Port Steady ON for LINK (LK) with no traffic. RX/ACT Blinking for activity.
