INSTALLATION

3.8.5Connecting a Fiber Optic Link Segment to the TPIM-F2 or TPIM-F3

When connecting a ﬁber optic link segment to the TPIM-F2 or TPIM-F3 keep the following in mind:

•If you are connecting a ﬁber optic link segment with ST connectors to a TPIM-F2 with ST ports, keep in mind that ST connectors attach to ST ports much like BNC connectors attach to BNC ports. The connector is inserted into the port with the alignment key on the connector inserted into the alignment slot on the port. The connector is then turned to lock it down.

•The physical communication link consists of two strands of ﬁber optic cabling: the Transmit (TX) and the Receive (RX). The Transmit strand from the applicable port on the module will be connected to the Receive port of a ﬁber optic device at the other end of the segment. For example, TX of the applicable port on the module will go to RX of the other ﬁber optic device. The Receive strand of the applicable port on the module will be connected to the Transmit port of the ﬁber optic device. For example, RX of the applicable port on the module will go to TX of the other ﬁber optic device.

It is recommended that you label the fiber optic cable to indicate which fiber is Receive and which is Transmit. When you buy fiber optic cable from Cabletron Systems, it is labeled so that: at one end of the cable, one fiber is labeled 1, and the other fiber is labeled 2. This pattern is repeated at the other end of the cable. If you did not purchase your cable from Cabletron Systems, be sure you have labeled your cable in the manner described above.

Caution: Do not touch the ends of the fiber optic strands, and do not let the ends come in contact with dust, dirt, or other contaminants. Contamination of the ends can cause problems in data transmissions. If the ends become contaminated, clean them with alcohol using a soft, clean, lint free cloth.
