Connecting optical fibers
WARNING!
To avoid injury to your eyes, do not stare at any fiber port or any open apertures of a fiber when
connecting optical fibers.
IMPORTANT:
•
Use only H3C-certified transceiver modules.
•
Ensure a minimum curvature radius of 10 cm (3.94 in) for the optical fibers.
To connect optical fibers to a fiber port:
1.
Remove the dust plug from the fiber port.
2.
Insert a transceiver module to the fiber port, as shown in callout 2 of
3.
Insert LC connectors of the optical fibers to the Rx and Tx ports of the transceiver module.
4.
Connect the other ends of the optical fibers to corresponding ports of the transceiver module on
the peer device.
Make sure the Rx port of a transceiver module is connected to the Tx port of the peer
transceiver module.
5.
Examine the port LED status. For more information, see "

NOTE:
•
Keep the connector on the optical fiber clean.
•
Insert the dust plug to the fiber port if no optical fiber is connected to the port.
Connecting USB devices
CAUTION:
To avoid data loss and hardware damages, do not unplug a USB device during data transmission.
