3.
If the PIC cable connector port is covered by a rubber safety plug, remove the plug.
WARNING: Do not look directly into a fiber-optic transceiver or into the
ends of fiber-optic cable. Fiber-optic transceivers and fiber-optic cable
connected to a transceiver emit laser light that can damage your eyes.
CAUTION: Do not leave a fiber-optic transceiver uncovered except when
inserting or removing cable. The safety cap keeps the port clean and
prevents accidental exposure to laser light.
4.
Insert the cable connector into the cable connector port on the PIC faceplate.
5.
Using a number 1 Phillips (+) screwdriver, loosen the two inner captive screws on the
upper or lower cable management system. Move the upper cable management system
cover up (
Figure 12 on page 18 ). Move the lower cable management system cover
down ( Figure 13 on page 18 ).
6.
Arrange the cable in the cable management system to prevent it from dislodging or
developing stress points (
Figure 14 on page 19 ). Secure the cable so that it is not
supporting its own weight as it hangs to the floor.
CAUTION: Avoid bending fiber-optic cable beyond its minimum bend
radius. An arc smaller than a few inches in diameter can damage the cable
and cause problems that are difficult to diagnose.
CAUTION: Do not let fiber-optic cable hang free from the connector. Do
not allow fastened loops of cable to dangle, which stresses the cable at
the fastening point.
7.
Move the upper cable management system cover down, and secure the two inner
captive screws on the upper cable management system by using a number 1 Phillips
(+) screwdriver. Move the lower cable management system cover up, and secure the
two inner captive screws on the lower cable management system by using the
screwdriver.
