5.1.3Connecting to an EPIM-100FX or EPIM-100FMB

The EPIM-100FX and EPIM-100FMB have an SC style network port (see Figure 5-3). Cabletron Systems supplies fiber optic cables using SC connectors that are keyed to ensure proper crossover of the transmit and receive fibers.

NOTE

An odd number of crossovers (preferably one) must be maintained between devices so that the transmit port of one device is connected to the receive port of the other device and vice versa.

Use the following steps to connect a fiber segment to the SEHI:

1.Remove the protective plastic covers from the fiber optic ports on the module port and from the ends of the connectors.

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.

CAUTION

Contamination of the ends causes problems in data

 

 

transmissions. If the ends become contaminated, clean them

 

with alcohol using a soft, clean, lint free cloth.

2.Insert one end of the SC connector into the EPIM-100FX or EPIM-100FMB on the SEHI. See Figure 5-3.
