Installing the Simplex Fiber Cable

1.Locate a 1000Base-X compliant simplex (1 strand) fiber cable with appropriate connectors. Ensure that the TX wavelength matches the RX wavelength at the other end and the RX wavelength matches the TX wavelength at the other end.

2.Connect the fiber cable from one media converter to the other media converter/switch/fiber device.

Installing the Copper Cable

1.Locate 10/100/1000Base-T compliant copper cables with the appropriate connectors.
