Connecting to the Network

2.3.1HSIM-G Network Connection

NOTE

If connecting the HSIM-G09 to the network using multimode fiber cable as the premises cabling, refer toSection 2.3.2 before following this procedure.

To connect the HSIM-G01 using multimode and single mode fiber, and the HSIM-G09 using single mode fiber to the network, perform the following steps:

The HSIM-G uses Class 1 lasers. Do not use optical

!instruments to view the laser output. The use of optical

CAUTION	instruments to view laser output increases eye hazard. When
	viewing the output optical port, power must be removed from
	the network adapter.

1.Remove the protective fiber port covers from the fiber optic ports and from the ends of the connectors.

NOTE

Leave the protective fiber port covers in place when the connectors are not in use to prevent contamination.

Do not touch the ends of the fiber optic strands, and do not let the ends come in contact with dust, dirt, or other contaminants. Contamination of the ends causes problems in data transmissions. If the ends become contaminated, blow the surfaces clean with a canned duster. A fiber port cleaning swab saturated with optical-grade isopropyl alcohol may also be used to clean the ends.

2.Insert one end of the SC connector, key side down, into the HSIM-G. See Figure 2-4. Refer to Appendix A for the proper fiber cable for the installation.
