Powering on a Fiber CAP M 2
4 With the cable's Mains plug disconnected from the CAP M, turn the circuit breaker on, unscrew the plug's
protective cover, and carefully test the plug with a voltmeter to ensure that the voltage and polarity are
correct.
5 Once the testing has been completed, turn off the circuit breaker.
6 Unscrew the protective cover from the Mains connector of the unit.
7 Insert the AC or DC power cable into the Mains connector as shown below; tighten the clamping ring until
it is hand tight. Do not over-tighten the clamping ring.
Connect a Hybrid Fiber Splice Box
For a CAP M2 powered by the Hybrid Fiber Splice Box (PN 7693816-xx):
• connect the power cable to the proprietary 4-pin, 36 to 60 Vdc Power connector on the CAP M2, and
terminate the other end to the CAP M Hybrid Fiber Splice Box.
• install an SFP+ module of the desired type (same as used at the OPT Card port) into the OCTIS connector
before connecting the LC Fiber pigtail.
• connect the LC Fiber Pigtail to the supplied OCTIS connector and splice the other end of the fiber pigtail
inside the locally-mounted CAP M Hybrid Fiber Splice Box. The LC Fiber Pigtail, which is not included with
the Fiber Splice Box for the CAP M must be obtained separately.
