Juniper PTX10001-36MR - Maintain Fiber-Optic Cables in the PTX10001-36 MR

LASER WARNING: Do not look directly into a ber-opc transceiver or into the ends of
ber-opc cables. Fiber-opc transceivers and ber-opc cables connected to
transceivers emit laser light that can damage your eyes.
LASER WARNING: Do not stare into the laser beam or view it directly with opcal
instruments even if the interface has been disabled.
1. If the ber-opc cable connector is covered by a rubber safety cap, remove the cap. Save the cap.
2. If the opcal transceiver is covered by a rubber safety cap, remove the cap. Save the cap.
3. Insert the cable connector into the opcal transceiver.
4. Secure the cable so that it does not support its own weight. Place excess cable out of the way in a
neatly coiled loop. Placing fasteners on a loop helps cables maintain their shape.
CAUTION: Do not bend ber-opc cables beyond their minimum bend radius. Bending
the cables beyond their minimum bend radius can damage the cables and cause
problems that are dicult to diagnose.
CAUTION: Do not let ber-opc cables hang free from the connector. Do not allow
fastened loops of cables to dangle, which stresses the cables at the fastening point.
Maintain Fiber-Opc Cables in the PTX10001-36MR
To maintain ber-opc cables in a PTX10001-36MR:
• When you unplug ber-opc cables from transceivers, place rubber safety caps over the transceivers
and on the end of the cables.
• Anchor ber-opc cables to avoid stress on the connectors. When aaching a ber-opc cable to a
transceiver, be sure to secure the ber-opc cable so that it does not support its own weight as it
hangs to the oor. Never let a ber-opc cable hang free from the connector.
• Do not bend ber-opc cables beyond their minimum bend radius. Bending the cables beyond their
minimum bend radius can damage the cables and cause problems that are dicult to diagnose.
