Fiber Optic Handling
Never assume a fiber is dark. Never look directly into the end of a fiber cable. All employees
in the area must wear laser safety glasses with side shields.
Installing connectors on a fiber requires special handling procedures. Read and follow the
fiber and connector manufacturer’s instructions.
Protect fiber cable ends and optical ports on equipment from dust and dirt.
• When a fiber cable is disconnected, fit a protective cap on the end.
• When no fiber cable is connected to an optical port, insert a protective cap.
Store unused protective caps in an airtight container to prevent the transfer of dust to the
fiber connectors when used in the future.
Installation
Use field-supplied OM4 Multimode Fiber (MMF) single fiber optical cable fitted with SC
connectors with this kit. For an installation overview, see
, on page 1. Proceed as
follows:
1 Connect the optical cable to the DXF-4K receiver (RX6F-SH51-03A-BK): first remove the
protective cap from the receiver’s optical input port and then insert the optical cable
connector into the receiver’s optical input port.
