CHAPTER 8: OMNIFiber Reference
NOTE
This method is called “Method B” in TIA-526-14A and “Method A.1” in
TIA-526-7.
1. Connect one end of a black launch cable to the TX (transmit) port of the
fiber adapter that is attached to OMNIScanner.
2. Connect the other end of that black launch cable to the RX (receive) port of
the fiber adapter that is attached to OMNIRemote.
3. Leave the two white fiber connectors dangling and unconnected.
4. Connect one end of another black launch cable to the TX (transmit) port of
the fiber adapter that is attached to the OMNIRemote.
5. Connect the other end of that black launch cable to the RX (receive) port of
the fiber adapter that is attached to the OMNIScanner.
6. Leave the two white fiber connectors dangling and unconnected.
7. Set the Reference.
8. ;Disconnect only the following two ends: OMNIFiber main RX (receive) and
OMNIFiber remote RX (receive). OMNIFiber main TX and OMNIFiber
remote TX stay connected.
9. Connect the white fibers to the appropriate RX ports.
8.3.2 M ETHOD A: T WO J UMPER R EFERENCE M ETHOD
This method is used when the link includes:
• the loss of one connection at the near or far end cross connect
• the loss of the cable plant
