3.
Inspect the other end of the fiber-optic cable with a scope, or use a fiber-cleaning
device to clean the connector before inserting it into any of the universal ports (U0 to
U19) of the TCX1000-RDM20.
4.
You can also connect any of the eight (C0 to C7) IN or OUT ports to on compatible
devices. See the
TCX Series Optical Transport System Feature Guide for a list of the
compatible devices.
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.
CAUTION: Do not let fiber-optic cables hang free from the connector. Do
not allow fastened loops of cables to dangle, which stresses the cables
at the fastening point.
