Only one fiber optic cable, Optical 1, is required for video,
audio, and serial command transmission. But, if you
connect only one fiber optic cable, you will not receive
RS-232 reports from the controlled device, and there will
be reduced front panel functionality. To receive responses
from the controlled device and for full functionality, you
will need to install both fiber optic cables.
