The FIK-FML (Fiber-Optic Multi-Mode) and FIK-FSL (Fiber-Optic Single-Mode) are plug-in fiber loop modules. The two
types of fiber-optic modules are used as one channel to transmit or receive communications with the FIK-NIC, ARCNET com-
munication circuit.
The following describe the two types of fiber-optic modules.
• The FIK-FML is a fiber module that allows the multi-mode fiber to network between nodes.
• The FIK-FSL is a fiber module that allows the single-mode fiber to network between nodes.
Each fiber loop module can Transmit (TX) and Receive (RX) the fiber-optic cable connecting to the FIK-NIC. Up to two fiber
loop cards can be added to the FIK-NIC, and both cards may be combined in the same configuration. See Figure 5.5.

Accessory Mounting Kits
The FIK-NIC can be mounted within the FCP-300/ECS cabinet or in an accessory cabinet. Accessory cabinets include a small
cabinet with door, key, and mounting hardware. An accessory kit is available if you want to install the FIK-NIC outside of the
FCP-300/ECS cabinet. The accessory kit part number is as followd.
1. 5815RMK -- which includes the enclosure with mounting bracket.
