Cleaning the Fiber Ends
Be sure that the fiber cable’s SC/APC connectors are clean and free of dust and oils. You need
lint-free cloths, isopropyl alcohol, and compressed air.
1 Moisten a lint-free clot
h with isopropyl alcohol.
2 Gently wipe the
fiber end with the moistened cloth.
3 Using a dry lint-free cloth, gently wipe the fiber end.
4 Spray the compressed air away from the
connector for a few seconds to clean out the nozzle
and then use it to completely dry the connector.
Testing the Fiber Cables
Perform cable testing and record the results. Test results are required for the final As-Built
Document.
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: 11
(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).
If the fiber jumper is labeled with 1 or 2
1 Connect 1s to UPLINK ports on the Main Hub.
2 Connect 2s to DOWNLINK ports on the Main Hub.
3 Record which cable number and port number you
connected to UPLINK and DOWNLINK.
(This information is needed when connecting the other end of the fiber cable to the Expansion
Hub’s fiber ports.)
The fiber port LEDs should be off,
indicating that the Expansion Hub(s) are not connected.
