Transceivers
Transceivers
Carefully connect optical fibre cables to the transceiver IN and OUT ports.
To ensure good signal quality, make sure that the optical fibre connector is
fully inserted into the optical connector port.
Note: Do not replace the transceiver while the test is running to avoid distorting
results. First stop the test, replace the transceiver, select the connector type
(refer to Modify Structure Button on page 65), and then restart the test.
RJ45
The electrical port is RJ45 for category 5 unshielded twisted pair (UTP).
Refer to Ethernet Cables on page 437 for cable specifications.
CAUTION
To prevent exceeding the maximum input power level please use an
attenuator when a loopback configuration is used.
CAUTION
Before inserting an optical module into the interface receptacle,
inspect the receptacle to make sure nothing is inside.
WARNING
Use only EXFO supported transceivers. Refer to www.exfo.com for
the list of supported transceivers. Using non-supported transceivers
can affect the performance and accuracy of the test.
