Connecting an LC-LC cable to an SFP module
Complete the following steps to connect an LC-LC Fibre Channel cable to an SFP module:
Statement 3:
CAUTION:
When laser products (such as CD-ROMs, DVD drives, fibre optic devices, or transmitters) are
installed, note the following:
v Do not remove the covers. Removing the covers of the laser product could result in exposure to
hazardous laser radiation. There are no serviceable parts inside the device.
v Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified herein
might result in hazardous radiation exposure.
DANGER
Some laser products contain an embedded Class 3A or Class 3B laser diode. Note the following.
Laser radiation when open. Do not stare into the beam, do not view directly with optical
instruments, and avoid direct exposure to the beam.
1. Read the information in “Handling fibre-optic cables” on page 47.
2. If necessary, remove the protective cap from the SFP module, as shown in Figure 23 on page 45. Save
the protective cap for future use.
3. Remove the two protective caps from one end of the LC-LC cable, as shown in Figure 29. Save the
protective caps for future use.
4. Carefully insert this end of the LC-LC cable into an SFP module that is installed in the DCS3700. The
cable connector is keyed to ensure it is inserted into the SFP module correctly. Holding the connector,
push in the cable until it clicks into place, as shown in Figure 30 on page 50.
