24.2 Managing fiber optic cables
This section describes how to fiber optic cables for line cards in the 7360 ISAM WM
shelf.
24.2.1 General safety and operations information
This section provides general safety and operations information. See the
7360 ISAM FX Safety Manual for more information.
Danger — Non-terminated optical connectors may emit
invisible laser radiation. Serious eye damage may occur if the
laser beam is viewed directly or with improper optical
instruments. Avoid direct exposure to the laser beam.
Warning 1 — Do not use nylon cable ties for securing fiber optic
cable.
Warning 2 — During card installation, proper fiber
management is crucial. Improper fiber placement can cause
the fibers to crimp and become damaged.
Caution 1 — When working with optical fiber cable, it is
essential to use caution to avoid breaking the fibers. Do not
pull, kink, or twist the optical fiber cable. If the cable is kinked,
pulled, twisted, or otherwise damaged, it must be discarded
and replaced with another cable.
Caution 2 — Avoid sharp bends in cables. Use the proper bend
radius when installing cables. The minimum bending radius of
fiber optic cable is 1.5 in. (38 mm), or 20 times the cable
diameter, whichever is greater.
