8.6.1
SAFETY WARNING
Class 1 laser product.
Exposure to the optical beam will not result in eye damage, however it is never advisable to look
into the optical port or fibre. The laser light is invisible and prolonged exposure should be avoided
as the human eye cannot respond to its presence.
8.6.2
OPTICAL CONNECTOR CLEANING
The vast majority of problems are caused by dust contamination of the optical window. Before
installing the optical plug, its end must be cleaned with an approved disposable optical wipe. The
optical connector on the unit must be cleaned by blowing clean (oil and dust free) compressed air
down the centre of the optical connector.
8.6.3
FC.PC CONNECTOR
This connector is more commonly used on single-mode cable. To connect – align the centre of the
fibre plug with the centre of the optical connector (on the rear panel). Push the plug in gently.
Rotate to align the keyway. The plug should now go in a little more. Make sure the keyway is
correctly located by rotating the plug to the left and to the right. Only a little movement should be
allowed. Once in place secure the plug by turning the locking ring clockwise. Taking care not to
over-tighten the locking ring – excessive pressure will cause misalignment, finger tight is more than
ample.
