Connecting an optical fiber
ARNING!
Do not stare into any fiber port when you connect an optical fiber. The laser light emitted from the optical
fiber may hurt your eyes.
Follow these guidelines when you connect a fiber cable:
Never bend or curve a fiber when connecting it.
Make sure the Tx and Rx ends are properly connected.
Keep the fiber end clean.
Be sure to install the dust cover if the fiber port is not connected to a fiber connector.
To connect an optical fiber:
1. Remove the dust plug from a fiber port of the router.
2. Remove the dust cover from the transceiver module, and plug the end without a pull latch into the
fiber port.
3. Remove the dust cover from the fiber connector.
4. Identify the Rx and Tx ports. Plug the LC connector at one end of one fiber cable into the Rx port
of the router and the LC connector at the other end into the Tx port of the peer device. Plug the LC
connector at one end of another fiber cable into the Tx port of the router and the LC connector at
the other end to the Rx port of the peer device.
5. Examine the Ethernet port LED after connection.
