Installing fiber-optic cables
Attention:
To avoid damage to your fiber-optic cables, follow these guidelines:
• Do not route the cable along a folding cable-management arm.
• When attaching fiber-optic cables to a device on slide rails, leave enough slack in
the cable so that it does not bend to a radius smaller than 76 mm (3 in.) when
extended or become pinched when retracted.
• Route the cable away from places where it can snag on other devices in the rack.
• Do not overtighten the cable straps or bend the cables to a radius smaller than 76
mm (3 in.).
• Do not put excess weight on the cable at the connection point and be sure that it
is well supported.
To connect the fiber-optic cables, do the following.
1. Remove the protective caps from the fiber-optic cable.
