Connecting to your Network
If you have a TP head
You can find a TP connector
unit in your ODIU, with there
connectors. You have to plug in
the TP cable of your head into
the RJ45 connector. Your
network is connectable to the
LB system using the white one
rowed connector, where you
have to connect the four cable
of your network with the help of
the punch down tool. The order
of the cable can be seen on the
figure.
The punch-down tool
Place your first cable on the top of the chosen
connector, without removing the insulator from the
cable. Then using the punch down tool push down the
cable into the connector.
If you have a TC head
You can find a two sided fibre connector in your ODIU. You have to connect the fibre
cable of your head into the one side of
the connector, and into the other side
you have connect the fibre cable of you
network equipment (switch; router or LB
combiner). The fibre plugs of the heads
are always SC typed, which means that
them cross-sections are cubic form. The
fibre connector in the ODIU is SC-SC
typed, so you have to provide an SC
fibre plug for you network. The SC-SC
connector is a reversible part, so you
can connect in the first plug where you
want, the important is that the two plugs of the head have to be on one side, and the
two plugs of the network have to be on the other, and if you plug in the transmitter
side of the head into a connector, then the transmitter side of the network have to be
in the opposite connector of the previous, and do the same with the other sides too.
