2.6 Cabling
◼
Twisted-pair segments can be connected with an Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) or Shielded
Twisted Pair (STP) cable. The cable must comply with the IEEE 802.3ab 1000Base TX
standard (e.g. Category 5, 5e, or 6, 6e). The cable between the equipment and the link
partner (switch, hub, workstation, etc.) must be less than 100 meters (328 ft.) long.
◼
*Note: Cable size should be between 18~20 AWG and the torque should be tightened to 5lbs.
The Small Form-Factor Pluggable (SFP) is a compact optical transceiver used in optical
communications for both telecommunication and data communication applications.
◼
To connect the transceiver and LC cable, please follow the steps below:
First, insert the SFP transceiver module into the SFP slot as shown below in
Figure 2.5
.
Notice that the triangle mark is at the bottom of the SFP slot.
Figure 2.6
shows the SFP
transceiver module was inserted.
Second, insert the fiber cable of the LC connector into the transceiver as shown below in
Figure
2.7.
To remove the LC connector from the transceiver, please follow the steps shown below:
1. Press the upper side of the LC connector from the transceiver and pull it out to release as
shown below in
Figure 2.8
.
