MAKING NETWORK CONNECTIONS

SC Fiber Connections

An optional slide-in 100BASE-FX module may be used for backbone and long distance connections. A 1000BASE-X module may also be used for a backbone connection between switches, or for connecting to a high-speed server.

Each multimode fiber optic port requires 50/125 or 62.5/125 micron multimode fiber optic cabling with an SC connector at both ends. If you need to connect to a device with 62.5/125 micron cable that has ST-type connectors, SMC provides an optional SC-ST Converter (Part Number: 99-012034-091).

Each single-mode fiber port requires 9/125 micron single-mode fiber optic cable with an SC connector at both ends.

Warning: This switch uses lasers to transmit signals over fiber optic cable. The lasers are compliant with the requirements of a Class 1 Laser Product and are inherently eye safe in normal operation. However, you should never look directly at a transmit port when it is powered on.

1.Remove and keep the SC port’s rubber cover. When not connected to a fiber cable, the rubber cover should be replaced to protect the optics.

2.Check that the fiber terminators are clean. You can clean the cable plugs by wiping them gently with a clean tissue or cotton ball moistened with a little ethanol. Dirty fiber terminators on fiber optic cables will impair the quality of the light transmitted through the cable and lead to degraded performance on the port.
