Connecting the STM-1/OC-3c Interface

The RIC-155 STM-1/OC-3c interface terminates in fiber optic or BNC coaxial connectors, designated RX and TX.

To connect a fiber optic cable:

1.Remove the protective caps from the connectors and store them in a safe place for later use.

2.Connect the transmit fiber to the connector marked TX and the receive fiber to the connector marked RX.

3.At the remote unit connect the transmit fiber to the connector marked RX and the receive fiber to the connector marked TX.

To connect a coaxial cable:

1.Connect the transmit cable to the connector marked TX and the receive fiber to the connector marked RX.

2.At the remote unit connect the transmit cable to the connector marked RX and the receive cable to the connector marked TX.

Connecting the 10/100BaseT Interface

The 10/100BaseT interface of RIC-155 terminates in RJ-45 connector designated DATA.

To connect the 10/100BaseT interface:

•Connect the LAN to the rear panel RJ-45 connector designated DATA.
