Figure 177 LC-type fiber-optic connector

n	■	LC-type fiber-optic connectors were compact fiber-optic connectors developed
		by Lucent.
	■	The fibers are provided depending on the purchased SFPs. Therefore, please
		provide information on the SFPs when purchasing FICs; by default, the fibers
		are not provided.

Connecting the Interface Optic Fiber

c

CAUTION: When connecting the optical fiber, observe the following

■Do not over-bend the optical fiber. Its curvature radius must be no less than 10 cm (3.9 in).

■Ensure that the Tx and Rx ends are correctly connected.

■Ensure that the fiber ends are clean.

w WARNING: Laser danger: Invisible laser radiation may be emitted from the fiber-optic ports which are connected to lasers. To protect your eyes against radiation harm, never stare into an open fiber-optic port.

Step 1: Insert the SFP optical module into its corresponding slot.

Step 2: Locate the Rx and Tx ports of the GEF interface. Connect them to another

device with two optical fibers: Rx to Tx and Tx to Rx.

Step 3: Power on the router and check the behavior of the LINK LED on the card panel. ON means an Rx link is present and OFF means the opposite. In the latter case, check the line status.

Introduction FIC-2SAE/FIC-4SAE/FIC-8SAE, 2-/4-/8-port enhanced high-speed synchronous/asynchronous serial interface card, transmits, receives, and processes data on the synchronous/asynchronous serial interface. They support both synchronous and asynchronous modes. In the former case, they support the DTE/DCE mode.
