Connecting to the Network
HSIM-G01/G09 User’s Guide 2-7
2.3.1 HSIM-G Network Connection
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:
1. Remove the protective fiber port covers from the fiber optic ports and
from the ends of the connectors.
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.
NOTE
If connecting the HSIM-G09 to the network using multimode
fiber cable as the premises cabling, refer to Section 2.3.2
before following this procedure.
!
CAUTION
The HSIM-G uses Class 1 lasers. Do not use optical
instruments to view the laser output. The use of optical
instruments to view laser output increases eye hazard. When
viewing the output optical port, power must be removed from
the network adapter.
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.
