Installing a transceiver module
WARNING!
When connecting an optical fiber, follow these guidelines:
•
Never bend or curve a fiber when connecting it. After a fiber
is installed well, the bend radius must be not less than 10 cm
(3.94 in).
•
Keep the fiber end clean.
•
Make sure that the fiber connector matches the transceiver
module.
•
Before connecting a fiber, make sure that the optical power
at the receiving end does not exceed the upper threshold of
the optical receive power of the transceiver module.
Otherwise, the transceiver module may be damaged.
To connect the wireless switch to the network through an optical fiber:
1.
Remove the dust plug on the fiber port.
2.
Insert the transceiver module into the fiber port.
3.
Remove the dust cover of the optical fiber connector, and use dust free
paper and absolute alcohol clean the end face of the fiber connector.
4.
Plug one end of the optical fiber into the transceiver module in the
wireless switch, and plug the other end into the transceiver module in the
peer device.
