7.2.6.4 Connecting a Cable to an Optical Port
Procedure
Step 1
Determine the model of the new cable.
You can use an optical cable or an SFP+ cable to connect to the optical port.
Step 2
Number the new cable.
l
The number of the new cable must be the same as that of the old one.
l
Use the same type of labels for the optical cable.
–
Record the name and number of the local device to be connected on one side of the
label, and those of the peer device on the other side.
–
Attach the label 2 cm (0.79 in.) away from the end of the optical cable.
Step 3
Lay out the new cable.
l
Lay out the new cable in the same way as the old one.
For example, if the old cable is laid out in underfloor cabling mode, so is the new cable.
l
Lay out optical cables or SFP+ cables in the cabinet based on installation requirements.
You are advised to arrange cables in the same way as existing cables. Ensure that cables
are routed neatly and undamaged.
l
Separate optical cables or SFP+ cables from power cables and signal cables when laying
out the cables.
l
The minimum bend radius of an optical cable or SFP+ cables is 4 cm (1.57 in.).
l
Ensure that optical cables or SFP+ cables are laid out for easy maintenance and capacity
expansion.
l
Optical cables must be bound using cable ties. Ensure that:
–
Optical cables are bound closely, neatly, and straight.
–
Cable ties are in even distance and fastened properly.
Step 4
Connect the cable to an optical port.
