Connect MIC Cables to the MX104 Router
1.
Have ready a length of the type of cable used by the component. For MIC cable
specifications, see the
MX Series Interface Module Reference
2.
Remove the rubber safety plug from the cable connector port.
WARNING:
Do not look directly into a fiber-optic transceiver or into the
ends of fiber-optic cables. Fiber-optic transceivers and fiber-optic cable
connected to a transceiver emit laser light that can damage your eyes.
CAUTION:
Do not leave a fiber-optic transceiver uncovered except when
inserting or removing cable. The safety cap keeps the port clean and
prevents accidental exposure to laser light.
3.
Insert the cable connector into the cable connector port on the faceplate.
NOTE:
The XFP cages and optics on the components are industry standard
parts that have limited tactile feedback for insertion of optics and fiber.
You need to insert the optics and fiber firmly until the latch is securely in
place.
4.
Use the equipment frame to support cables and prevent them from dislodging or
developing stress points. Secure the cable so that it is not supporting its own weight
as it hangs to the floor. Place excess cable out of the way in the cable routing channel.
CAUTION:
Avoid bending fiber-optic cable beyond its minimum bend
radius. An arc smaller than a few inches in diameter can damage the cable
and cause problems that are difficult to diagnose.
