9.2Connection of optical fiber cables (cords)
Connection is made between FC Type connectors, or between F07 Type connectors. For the case of CH1 and CH10, the connectors are FC Type, so that a transmission connector (TX) of the Active Star Coupler shall be connected to the FC Type receiving connector (OR) on the target station, and that a receiving connector (RX) of the Active Star Coupler shall be connected to the FC Type transmission connector (OT) on the target station, using respective optical cables.
For the connection between Active Star Couplers, a transmission connector (TX) of an Active Star Coupler shall be connected to a receiving connector (RX) of another Active Star Coupler, further a receiving connector (RX) of an Active Star Coupler shall be connected to a transmission connector (TX) of another Active Star Coupler, using respective optical cables.
(Notes)
∙At Active Star Coupler side, arbitrary port among CH1 through CH10 may be selected. (TX and RX of CH1 and CH10 are in a pair form.)
∙To the optical transmission/receiving sections (ports) which are not connected with cables shall be applied with black caps to avoid incoming ambient natural lights. Unnecessary lights may induce
