Attaching the OMNIScanner Fiber Adapters
Note: Use dust caps to protect the connectors from dirt. Keep the connec-
tors covered when the Fiber Adapters are not in use. This helps to ensure
that contaminants from handling fiber do not affect test measurements.
Note: Both OMNIFiber adapters have 160
pin connector covers. Keep the 160 pin
connectors covered when the Fiber Adapt-
ers are not in use.
To attach a fiber adapter to OMNI
Scanner
proceed as follows:
1. Remove the 160 pin connector cover from
the OMNI
Fiber
adapter by gently pressing
the black push button latches. The cover
will be released.
2. Push the OMNI
Fiber
adapter onto
OMNI
Scanner’s
160 pin connector until it
snaps into position.
3. To remove OMNI
Fiber,
use the push
button latches to release the secured adapter.
4. Protect OMNI
Fiber’s
160 pin connector by snapping the cover back in
place.
Attaching the Microtest Connector Adapter
OMNI
Fiber
has one ST-style connector port (TX) and one threaded optical
receiver port (RX) which accepts different Microtest connector adapters.
Attach the included ST connector adapters to the OMNIFiber RX receiver
ports before connecting jumpers.
Note: Keep the connectors covered when the Fiber Adapters are not in use.
Several Microtest connector adapters are available (as optional accessories)
for the OMNI
Fiber
optical receiver port (RX).
