WARNING:
Unterminated optical connectors may emit invisible laser radiation. Avoid
direct exposure to the beam. Do not view beam with optical instruments.
Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than
those specified herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure.
!
CAUTION:
When handling optical pigtails or jumpers, take care to keep bending
radius as large as possible.
NOTE:
This procedure is used to connect OC-1, OC-3, or OC-12 optical fiber
spans. For each span, determine the loss of each optical fiber and install
the proper LBO. Then connect the fibers to the associated IN and OUT
connectors of each OLIU at the end of the span.
NOTE:
It is assumed that the optical jumpers used to connect the DDM-2000
FiberReach Wideband Terminal to an optical interconnection point are
equipped with SC, FC, or
ST
®
lightguide cable connectors.
If the optical cables have not been placed into the cable tray at the bottom front
of the shelf, loosen three screws holding the front cover of the cable tray and
slide out the front cover of the tray.
