3.3.2 Fiber Optic Rules
Either single mode or multimode fiber can be used with MobileAccess 1000M products,
while MobileAccess 1000 products can only be used with single mode fiber.
Only Multimode fiber, 50/125 or 62.5/125um complying with ANSI/TIA/EIA-568-B series,
EN50173-1 or ISO/IEC 11801 can be used. The fiber length can be up to 300 meters
assuming the following qualifications:
All fiber in a given length of fiber must be of the same core diameter.
All Bulkhead adapters must be Single mode SC/APC (Green) adapters.
All terminations cross connections or patches must be direct fusion splice or
MobileAccess specified patch cords listed below.

Use only 8-degree SC/APC connectors (green color).
Use only fusion splice for connecting two fibers.
Use minimum splicing/connectors to achieve minimum losses on the fibers (<0.5dB).
Use precaution while installing, bending, or connecting fiber optic cables.
Use an optical power meter and OTDR for checking the fiber optic cables.
Make sure the environment is clean while connecting/splicing fiber optic cables.
All fiber optic connections should be cleaned prior to attaching to termination points
using a dry cleaning device (i.e. Cletop or equivalent).
Fiber connector protective caps should be installed on all non-terminated fibers and
removed just before they are terminated.
Verify the Fiber Optic connections using a suitable fiber optic test procedure.
