Procedure 5-17
Connecting fiber optic cables to 2xGE(o) interfaces of
4xGE + 4xFE circuit pack
Use this procedure to connect the fiber optic cables to the 2xGE interfaces of
the 6200 network element.
Prerequisites
Make sure that the following tools and materials are available:
• four simplex LC optical patch cords or two duplex LC optical patch cords
• cable ties
Note: You can also install electrical SFPs for the 2xGE(o) interfaces. In
such cases the cables are coaxial instead of optical.
Ensure that the optical or electrical SFP modules are inserted into the optical
interface ports, refer to Procedure 10-6, Installing and removing pluggable
modules, for details
Action
Step Action
1 Identify the fiber optic cables.
2 Remove the dust caps on the optical interfaces.
3 Inspect and clean the connectors/adaptors on the patch cord. For details,
refer to Procedure 9-2, Cleaning optical connectors and adapters on patch
cords.
4 Connect the appropriate fiber optic cables to the transmit and receive ports
of 4xGE + 4xFE card circuit pack. For details, refer to Figure 5-28 on page
5-50.

DANGER
Risk of personal injury
When the shelf is powered on, the optical interface ports emit
laser light that can blind. Keep all optical connectors on the
optical interface ports capped when they are not connected to
optical fiber cables. Never look directly into the end of an
optical fiber.
