IF62 - IF63
5.4 Optical connections
To connect the modules a cord set of
multimode optical fiber cables
assembled and supplied by Lika Electronic can be used. Alternatively any
multimode optical fiber cable having either 50/125 µm or 62.5/125 µm core
diameter will be suitable for such use.
WARNING
Single-mode optical fiber cables cannot be used.
Please keep the dust protection covers of the optical transmitters and receivers.
Put them back in place when no optical fiber cable is connected to the modules,
in order to avoid any soil by dust or other substances.
WARNING
Please make sure that the connector of the optical fiber cable is correctly in
place and that the bayonets catch is locked.
Please also note that the ST connector is indexed and uses a plug and socket
which is locked in place with a half-twist bayonet lock. The ST connector has a
bayonet swell and a lengthy cylindrical ferrule to grip the fiber. They are spring-
loaded; hence, you have to be certain that they are fixed correctly. Please never
force the connector!
