Connect Fiber Cable to the Peripheral Unit
The fiber optic cable connects the FIM in the 3300 Controller to the FIM in the Peripheral Unit.
To connect the fiber optic cable to the FIM in the peripheral node:
1. Review the guidelines for handling fiber optic cable.
2. Route the fiber optic cable through the cable port at the rear of the peripheral cabinet into
the cabinet. Extend the fiber cable approximately 30 cm (1 ft) beyond the front of the
cabinet.
3. Install a short piece of nylon spiral wrap over the cable at the point where the cable exits
the rear of the cabinet.
4. Close the sliding cable port door. Ensure that the door closes on the nylon spiral-wrapped
section of fiber cable.
5. Remove the plastic dust caps from the fiber optic cable and the connector ferrules on the
FIM faceplate.
6. Plug the fiber connectors into the connectors on the FIM faceplate. The fiber connectors
have a small key that must be aligned with a slot on the FIM connectors. Lock each
connector into position by pushing the metal collar forward and clipping it onto the FIM
connector.
