If you are connecting an optical bypass switch, proceed to the next section. Otherwise, proceed to
“Connecting the Console Terminal” in this chapter.
Installing an Optical Bypass Switch
An optical bypass switch is a device installed between the ring and the station that provides
additional fault tolerance to the network. If a FIP that is connected to a bypass switch fails or shuts
down, the bypass switch activates automatically and allows the light signal to pass directly through
it, bypassing the FIP completely. (See Figure 3-18 or Figure 3-19.) A port for connecting an optical
bypass switch is provided on the multimode/multimode FIP (CX-FIP-MM) and the
single-mode/single-mode FIP (CX-FIP-SS).
