Installing a Cable on an MX240 DPC, MPC, MIC, or PIC
To install a cable on a DPC, MPC, MIC, or PIC:
1. Have ready a length of the type of cable used by the component. 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 cable
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 faceplate.
CAUTION: Avoid bending fiber-optic cable beyond its minimum bend
radius.An arcsmaller than a few inches in diameter can damage the cable
and cause problems that are difficult to diagnose.
CAUTION: Do not let fiber-optic cable hang free from the connector. Do
not allow fastened loops of cable to dangle, which stresses the cable at
the fastening point.
4. Insert the other end of the cable into the destination port.
5. Repeat the previous steps for any additional cables.
6. If the component is offline (its failure indicator LED is lit), use one of the following
methods to bring the PIC online:
•
