•The physical communication link consists of two strands of fiber optic cabling: the Transmit (TX) and the Receive (RX). The TX strand from the applicable port on the module connects to the receive port of a fiber optic Ethernet device at the other end of the segment. The RX strand of the applicable port on the module connects to the transmit port of the fiber optic Ethernet device.
•Label the fiber optic cable to indicate which fiber is receive and which is transmit. Fiber optic cable purchased from Cabletron Systems is labeled so that one fiber is labeled 1, and the other fiber is labeled 2 at both ends of the cable. For cable not purchased from Cabletron Systems, label the cable as described above.
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.
C AUT IO N 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.
