Attaching a Fiber Optic Module
The following procedure details how to attach an SFP SX/LX connector to the NVG595 and attach the fiber
optic cable to the Optic module.
1. Insert the SFP SX/LX fiber optic module into the Fiber port on the rear of the NVG595. Push it in firmly until
it clicks. The label on the module should be facing upward when the module is inserted. Failure to ensure
this could cause damage to the module.
2. Remove the rubber protective cap from the end of the SFP SX/LX fiber optic module.
3. Remove the protective plastic caps from the end of the fiber cable and insert the fiber cable into the SFP SX/
LX fiber optic module. Push firmly until the latch on the end of the connector locks over the fiber cable.
WARNING!
Laser output can cause serious eye damage. The lasers used in this device produce
light that is invisible to the naked eye. Assume at all times that the fiber optic cables
and optical ports are radiating light energy. When connecting or handling the fiber
cables or connectors, it is imperative that no one looks into the tip of the fiber.
