ConnectingtheFiberCables

Thefibercableislabeledwitheither1or2,oriscolor‐coded.Inadditiontotheselabels,you

shouldaddacodethatidentifieswhichportontheMainHubisbeingusedandwhichExpansion

Hubthecablesareintendedfor.Thisdifferentiatestheconnectorsforproperconnectionbetween

theMainHubandExpansionHubs.

Forexample:

FirstpairtoMainHubport1:1

1(uplink),12(downlink);

SecondpairtoMainHubport2:21(uplink),22(downlink);

ThirdpairtoMainHubport3:31(uplink),

32(downlink);andsoon.

NOTE: TheFusionWidebandOnePortMainHub(PN:FSN‐1‐MH‐1PandFSN‐2‐MH‐2‐1P)configuration

isacostreducedversionoftheFusionWidebandMainHubandsupportsonlyoneExpansionHub

(upto8RAUs).

1 Connect1stoUPLINKportsontheMainHub.

2 Conn

ect2stoDOWNLINKportsontheMainHub.

3 Recordwhichcablenumberandpo

rtnumberyouconnectedtoUPLINKandDOWNLINK.

Thisinformationisneededwhenco
