CONNECT TO FI BER UNDER TEST (FUT)
All fibers and connectors should be cleaned and inspected prior to connection, as described on page 1.
The OCC is typically connected to the FUT via a Monitor Port or splitter/tap to not disrupt service. The
OCC can also be directly connected to the common port or common fiber via a coupler during turn up or
maintenance:
