To connect a fiber-optic cable segment to the module, refer to Figure 3-15 and proceed as
follows:

from the connectors on each end of the cable.
2. Insert the MT-RJ cable connector into the MT-RJ front panel connector until it clicks

Connector
Note: Leave the protective covers in place when the connectors are not in use to prevent
contamination.
Caution: Do not touch the ends of the fiber-optic strands, and do not let the ends come in
contact with dust, dirt, or other contaminants. Contamination of cable ends causes
problems in data transmissions. If the ends of the fiber-optic strands become
contaminated, use a canned duster to blow the surfaces clean. A cleaning swab saturated
with optical-grade isopropyl alcohol may also be used to clean the ends.
Note: To remove the MT-RJ cable connector, press on its release tab and pull it out of the
Mini-GBIC.
