The Extender requires duplex fiberoptic cabling. Most cable manufacturers
mark the two connectors at each end of the duplex cable with a “T” and an “R”
to distinguish which to connect to the transmitter (T) and which to connect to
the receiver (R). Connect the fiberoptic cables as shown below. The Transmitter
of #1 is connected to the receiver of #2 and vice versa.
Follow these guidelines for taking care of your Extender.
1.
Treat the fiberoptic transmitter, receiver, and cabling ends gently. Good
system performance requires clean port optics and cable ferrules to avoid
obstructing the optical path.
2.
Compressed air is often all that’s needed to remove dirt particles from the
optic transmitters and receivers. Standard lens-cleaning tissues or cotton
swabs soaked with methanol or freon also work well for cleaning cable
ferrules. Be careful not to splash methanol or freon on case parts.
3.
When the Extender is not in use, replace the Extender’s optical transmitter
and receiver protection caps. Make sure cable ferrule protection caps are
also replaced.
4.
When pulling optical cable through conduits of walls,
never
use the
connectors as a link to the pulling lead. Make sure that the cable is loose
in the conduit after installation. If the cable is pulled tight on a corner,
transmission loss may be increased significantly.
5.
When seating connectors in the transmitter and receiver, you might have
to turn the connector a little to achieve satisfactory transmission.
