Connecting to the OC3/STM1 Interface
The Optical DAC-LTM contains two sets of optical ports (two primary and two
redundant, each with separate Tx and Rx channels), consisting of a total of eight
optical connections. The Optical SCC-II-LTM contains two sets, with separate Tx
and Rx channels, consisting of a total of four optical connections.
Connections may be made to optical cables with SC single or SC duplex
connectors.
Warning: These devices contain Class 1 laser products, and comply
with 21 CFR 1040.10 and 1040.11 EN 60825-1 - Safety of Laser
Products.
Class 1 lasers are considered eye-safe; however, follow these
appropriate safety measures:
• Always make sure that the CVX switch is powered down before
connecting or disconnecting any optical cables.
• Always make sure all ports or unconnected optical cable ends are
covered before powering up the CVX switch.
• Never remove a cover from a port or attached optical cable while the
CVX switch has power.
Caution: For proper operation, observe the following:
• Never touch the end of the fiber in a connector with anything except
an approved cleaner.
• Always clean the end of the fiber in connectors and optical ports
before connecting the cables. Use an approved cleaner, or a soft cloth
with isopropyl alcohol.
• Never use any optical cable that has been damaged, or that has been
coiled tighter than a 35-mm radius curve.
