 General Optical Cable Handling Instructions
When connecting optical cables make sure to prevent cable twisting and avoid
sharp bends (unless otherwise specified by the optical cable manufacturer, the
minimum fiber bending radius is 35 mm). Always leave some slacks, to prevent
stress.
Before installing optical cables, it is recommended to clean thoroughly their
connectors using an approved cleaning kit.
2.1.6.3 Connecting MUXpro to Ground and Power
Any interruption of the protective (grounding) conductor (inside or outside the
device) or disconnecting the protective earth terminal can make the device
dangerous. Intentional interruption is prohibited.
Caution:
Make sure all the optical connectors are closed at all times by the
appropriate protective caps, or by the mating cable connector.
Do not remove the protective cap until an optical fiber is
connected to the corresponding connector, and immediately install
a protective cap after a cable is disconnected.
