The procedure to disconnect other types of AOCs, other than direct aach AOCs, is the same as the
procedure described in this topic.
Connect an Acve Opcal Cable
Before you connect an AOC to a device, ensure that you have taken the necessary precauons for safe
handling of lasers (see Laser and LED Safety Guidelines and Warnings).
CAUTION: To prevent electrostac discharge (ESD) damage to the transceiver, do not
touch the connector pins at the end of the transceiver.
Ensure that you have an ESD grounding strap (not provided).
NOTE: Aer you connect a cable or aer you change the media-type conguraon, wait for
6 seconds for the interface to display operaonal commands.
NOTE: We recommend that you use only cables purchased from Juniper Networks with your
Juniper Networks device.
CAUTION: If you face a problem running a Juniper Networks device that uses a third-
party opc or cable, the Juniper Networks Technical Assistance Center (JTAC) can help
you diagnose the source of the problem. Your JTAC engineer might recommend that
you check the third-party opc or cable and potenally replace it with an equivalent
Juniper Networks opc or cable that is qualied for the device.
To connect an acve opcal cable:
1. Wrap and fasten one end of the ESD wrist strap around your bare wrist, and connect the other end
of the strap to a site ESD point.
2. Remove the cable from its bag.
CAUTION: Do not leave the transceivers at the ends of the cable uncovered except
when connecng or disconnecng the cable. The rubber safety cap keeps the
transceivers clean and protected.
