II. Introduction to fiber connector
Note:
z
When selecting a fiber network facility, make sure that the type of the connector and
the fiber match the adopted optical port.
z
Before connecting the fiber, make sure that the receive-end optical power does not
exceed the optical module’s upper threshold of receiving optical power. Excessive
receiving optical power is very likely to burn the optical module.
z
All the megabit and gigabit optical modules available on the S9500 series are SFP
modules and all interfaces on SFP modules adopt LC connectors.
Fiber connectors are indispensable passive components in an optical fiber
communication system. They allow the removable connection between optical
channels, which makes the optical system debugging and maintenance more
convenient and the transit dispatching of the system more flexible. Among various fiber
connectors, only the LC connector is introduced here.
