Product Description and User’s Manual

4.5 Fiber Optic Connection

Class 1 Laser

This product is equipped with class 1 lasers, as per definition in EN 60825-1.

Un-terminated optical receptacles may emit laser radiation. Do not stare into

the beam or view with optical instruments

Use the following over the complete fiber link between the OMU and the Repeater:

 Single-mode type fiber 9/125

 Use SC/APC connectors (8 degree angle) for all connections

Connecting the Fiber Optic Cable

1. The fiber optic cable with its SC/APC connector must be passed through the cable gland on

the side of the repeater. If the rubber sealing insert is already inside the gland it must first be

removed.

2. Ensure that there is enough cable slack between the cable gland and the fiber optic converter

module to connect the free SC/APC connector to the SC/APC receptacle on the F/O

converter module.

Make sure the fiber optical cable is not bent too sharply inside the repeater as

this can damage the cable and lead to communication disruptions.
