System attenuation and attenuation of optical components must be determined.
Fiber-cable connectors have to be of the same type (E2000APC) as the
connectors used for the unit. The fiber-optic cables are connected to the optical
transceiver.
Angled connectors are not compatible with straight optical connectors;
non-compatibility of connectors will result in permanent damage to both
connectors.
) Note: Care should be taken when connecting and disconnecting
fiber-optic cables. Scratches and dust significantly affect system
performance and may permanently damage the connector. Always
use protective caps on fiber-optic connectors not in use.
) Note: In general, optical fibers do not need special protective measures.
However, protection against environmental influences e.g. rodents
and humidity must be considered.
