Attaching the Mode-Conditioning Patch Cord
Perform the following steps to attach the mode-conditioning patch cord:
Step 1 Attach the patch cord to the SC-type receptacle on the GBIC module (Figure 5) or the LC-type connector
on the SFP module (Figure 6).
Step 2 Attach the network ends of your patch cord to the appropriate 1000BASE-X equipment in your building
cable plant.
Note Ensure that you connect the TX and RX ports on one end of the patch cord to the RX and TX
ports (respectively) on the other end. Connect TX to RX and RX to TX.
If you are attaching cables from CWDM GBIC modules or SFP modules to the Cisco optical add-drop
(OADM) modules, see the documentation for the OADM modules.
This completes the procedure for attaching a mode-conditioning patch cord.
