WARNING: Do not look directly into a fiber-optic connector or into the
ends of fiber-optic cables. Fiber-optic transceivers and fiber-optic cables
connected to transceivers emit laser light that can damage your eyes.
WARNING: Class 1M laser product.
WARNING: Do not stare into the laser beam or view it directly with optical
instruments even if the interface has been disabled.
2.
If the optical connector is covered by a rubber safety cap, open the cap.
3.
Insert the cable connector into the optical connector of the TCX1000-RDM20.
4.
Insert the other end of the cable connectore into the optic connector of the FMD96.
5.
Secure the cables so that they do not support their own weight. Place excess cable
out of the way in a neatly coiled loop. Placing fasteners on a loop helps cables maintain
their shape.
CAUTION: Do not bend fiber-optic cables beyond their minimum bend
radius. Bending the cables beyond their minimum bend radius can damage
the cables and cause problems that are difficult to diagnose.
