3.2 Fiber Optic Cable
Requirements
Thinklogical recommends SX+ Laser Enhanced (50µm) fiber for your Velocity Extension System. Multi-
mode fiber has the ability to extend up to a maximum of 1000m, where Single-mode fiber has the ability
to extend distances beyond 1000m.
Fiber optic cable must run between the location of the Transmitter unit (near your CPU) and the Receiver
unit (near your desktop devices). The standard multi-mode fiber optic cable must be 50 micron,
terminated with an SC, ST or LC type fiber optic connector and no longer than 3280 running feet (1000
meters). Be careful not
to
kink or pinch the fiber optic cable as it is being installed, and keep all bend
radii to no less than 3 inches (76.2mm). Please refer to the Quick Start Guide included in Appendix
B.
Handling Fiber Optic Cable
Unlike copper cabling, fiber optic cable requires special handling. A small speck of dust or a
scratch to the ferrule tip (the end of the connector) can attenuate the optical signal so that it
becomes unusable.
Warning! The ends of the connectors (the ferrule) should never come in contact with
any foreign object, including fingertips.
Warning! Minimum bend radius must be 1.5”. Be careful not to pinch the fiber when
using ties.
Installing Fiber into Input/Output Cards
Step 1: Grasp the LC connector of the fiber optic cable by the sides and remove the dust cap.
Step 2:
Open the LC retractable and carefully insert the fiber connector into the SFP+ port until it locks
into place.
Removing Fiber from Input/Output Cards
Step 1: The LC connector has a locking feature that can be released by depressing the latch-release tab
located on the side of the connector. With the tab depressed, slowly remove the cable by pulling the
connector straight out of the SFP+ port.
Step 2: Immediately install a dust cap on the ferrule to protect the fiber tip.
