Tx LC Adaptor (optional)
Fig. 2 Fiber Adapters
LC adapters are available optionally. The correct LC adapter must be used on the Tx Port - MM (Orange
boot- part number 025202) / SM (Yellow boot - part number 025201). When using LC adapters, the
adapter ring must first be removed from the Rx Port.
To remove an adapter, unscrew it anticlockwise.
Before fitting the new adapter, clean the inside of the ferrules in the port connector and in the adapter
with a cotton bud.
Fit the new adapter by screwing it clockwise.
2.3 Encircled Flux
By using the optional IDEAL 164050 (50/125 um SC to SC) or 164051 (50/125 um SC to LC)
conditioning unit, the Tx signal from the Multimode module can be made to be Encircled Flux compliant
as defined by IEC 62180-4-1 / TIA 455-526-14-B.
NOTE
The use of this conditioning unit introduces some Insertion Loss and therefore, before it is used, a Field
Calibration must be performed, with the conditioning unit connected to the adaptor Tx port.
