8.2.3 Fiber cables
Standard single-mode fiber cables with LC connectors are connected to the SFP
optical modules for transmit (Tx) and receive (Rx) purposes.
The GPON and EPON SFPs require an SC/UPC connector.
The NELT-B requires 90° fiber connector strain relief boots.
8.2.4 Routing fiber optic cables in the rack
Fiber optic cables must be routed upward towards the top of the 7360 ISAM FX-16
shelf using the cable guides that are built into the baffle.
8.2.5 Fiber management kit
Fiber management guides are recommended for installment on the 7360 ISAM FX
shelves to provide proper fiber optic cable handling. The kit contains:
• fiber management guide for the NT cards
• fiber management guide for the LT cards
One fiber management guide is required for every four LT cards.
Figure 66 shows an example of a fiber management guide.
Note 1 — For an overview of the supported SFP modules, see
the 7360 ISAM FX Product Information Guide.
Note 2 — Nokia recommends protecting any SFP cage that is
not equipped with an SFP modules with a dust cover in order to
prevent dust intrusion.
Note 3 — The type of optical fibers must match the particular
SFP to guarantee the overall optical budget in the system and
its correct operation of the system. Loss of optical power as a
result of a mismatch in materials must be avoided.
