The VAB700XD Series has the following optical connection options:
a. ST
b. FC
c. SC

Note: Clean fiber optic jumpers increase transmission distance and reduce
reflections.
3.5 Fiber Optic Ports
The following describes the steps required to connect the VAB700XD Series
Transmitter and Receiver to the fiber optic cable plant.
a. Proper optical fiber connection between the transmitter and the receiver
is to label each individual cable for each channel.
b. To make connections:
. Clean the port: First remove and save the dust caps from the optical
port of both the converter and the user device. Wipe the inside of the
sleeve with a lint-free pipe cleaner moistened with reagent-grade
isopropyl alcohol. Blow dry with dry air.
. Clean the connector: Use lint-free cloth dampened with alcohol to
thoroughly wipe the side and end of the ferrule. Blow the ferrule dry with
dry air. Visually inspect the ferrule for lint.
. To insert connector:
ST-type: Hold the connector by the strain-relief boot and insert the connector ferrule into
the port. Rotate the boot until the “key” engages in the slot of the coupling. Push the
connector housing forward until it can be turned clockwise to latch to the port.
