. Table 3 provides a complete guide to the sequence for testing with the light source at Module
“B”, or the “Far end” and the meter at the MTP Tap module “A” (“Near end”) of the system shown in
Figure 11.

Testing Sequence

To begin testing the LIVE Portion of the MTP Tap module in the other direction (Figure 11):
Step 1:
Install the
Light Source/RJ1 LC connector
into LC number 2 port of the EDGE8
module (Module “B” in Figure 11).
Step 2:
Install
RJ2’s LC connector adapter
on the number 1 LC connector of the harness
plugged into the LIVE Port of the MTP Tap module.

Note that steps 8.4 and 8.6 can be combined if using an optical test set with both a source and
a meter on one unit. This will test two fibers at a time because there will be two sources and meters.
It is important that the source is always plugged into the transmit/even fibers and that the meter is
plugged into the receive/odd fibers.
