Fiber-Optic Serial Port
Order the fiber-optic option for Port 1 for safety and long-distance communications as
far as 4 km (2.5 mi). The fiber-optic port is an SEL-2812-compatible device that can
connect directly to any SEL-2812-compatible device or SEL-2812 Fiber-Optic
Transceiver, using multimode fiber-optic cable with a core diameter of 50 to 200 Pm.
When working with this device, observe the following safety precautions:
➤ Do not look into the fiber (laser) ports/connectors.
➤ Do not look into the end of an optical cable connected to an optical
output.
➤ Do not perform any procedures or adjustments that this instruction
manual does not describe.
➤ During installation, maintenance, or testing of the optical ports, use
only test equipment qualified for Class 1 laser products.
➤ Incorporated components, such as transceivers and laser emitters, are
not user serviceable. Return units to SEL for repair or replacement.
