After the fiber installation, insert fiber plugs in idle interfaces and cover idle fibers with fiber caps.

Choose a coiling fiber spool according to the length of redundant fibers. Wind the fibers around the big spool first
and then the smaller spool. The fibers should not be coiled too tightly or too loosely. Ensure that the bending
radius of fibers is not less than 30 mm.
Do not look or stare into optical fibers directly without eye protection.

When you connect fibers to DCMs, make sure that the DCMs and fibers are correctly connected in
the two directions based on the engineering documents specific to the site.
