WARNING: Do not look directly into a fiber-optic transceiver or into the ends of
fiber-optic cables. Fiber-optic transceivers and fiber-optic cables connected to a
transceiver emit laser light that can damage your eyes.
CAUTION: Do not leave a fiber-optic transceiver uncovered except when you are
inserting or removing cable. The safety cap keeps the port clean and prevents
accidental exposure to laser light.
4. Remove the cable from the cable management brackets.
5. Disconnect the cable from the destination port.
Installing a Cable on an MPC or MIC
To install a cable:
1. Have ready a length of the type of cable used by the MPC or MIC. For cable specifications, see the MX
Series Interface Module Reference.
2. If the cable connector port is covered by a rubber safety plug, remove the plug.
WARNING: Do not look directly into a fiber-optic transceiver or into the ends of
fiber-optic cables. Fiber-optic transceivers and fiber-optic cables connected to a
transceiver emit laser light that can damage your eyes.
CAUTION: Do not leave a fiber-optic transceiver uncovered except when you are
inserting or removing cable. The safety cap keeps the port clean and prevents
accidental exposure to laser light.
3. Insert the cable connector into the cable connector port on the component faceplate.
4. Arrange the cable in the cable management brackets to prevent it from dislodging or developing stress
points. Secure the cable so that it is not supporting its own weight as it hangs to the floor. Place excess
cable out of the way in a neatly coiled loop. Placing fasteners on the loop helps to maintain its shape.
