2.3CONNECTING TO THE NETWORK

The HSIM-G has an SC style connector for the network port. Cabletron Systems offers fiber optic cables that use SC style connectors which are keyed to ensure proper crossover of the transmit and receive fibers. Check the fiber specifications in Appendix A for each HSIM-G carefully before connecting an HSIM-G to the network.

An odd number of crossovers (preferably one) must be maintained between like devices so that the transmit port of one device is connected to the receive port of the other device and vice versa.

If the fiber optic cable being used has SC style connectors that do not resemble MIC style connectors, or has SC connectors on one end and a different type on the other, such as ST connectors, ensure that the proper cross over occurs.
