CSG14 Series Gigabit Converter Switch | Installation and User Guide (05/09) |
3.8.3Connecting Fiber Optic SC-type, "Snap-In"
The following procedure applies to installations using SC-type fiber connectors, i.e., using multi-mode SC. While connecting fiber media to SC connectors, simply snap on the two square male connectors into the SC female jacks of the Fiber connector until it clicks and secures.
3.8.4Installing LC-type SFP module,“Small Form Pluggable (SFP)”
Grasp the SFP module by your thumb and forefinger. Insert the SFP into the SFP slot. Apply a light pressure to the SFP until the device clicks and locks into position. Now connect your LC connectors.
3.8.5Connecting Single-Mode Fiber Optic
When using single-mode fiber cable, be sure to use single-mode fiber port connectors. Single-mode fiber cable has a smaller diameter than multi-mode fiber cable (9/125 microns for single-mode, 50/125 or 62.5/125 microns for multi-mode where xx/xx are the diameters of the core and the core plus the cladding respectively). Single-mode fiber allows full bandwidth at longer distances, about 70km with the single-mode LC.
The same procedures as for single-mode fiber apply to multi-mode fiber connectors. Follow the steps listed in Section 3.8.3 above.
