Fiber Description
Fibers
There are three different types of single-mode fiber used with the DMX
Access Multiplexer system, simplex blue fiber, simplex yellow fiber,
and the customer’s fiber, and two types of multi-mode fiber used with
the DMX Access Multiplexer, multi-mode simplex gray fiber and the
customer’s multi-mode fiber. Multi-mode fiber is only supported for
use with the LNW67 1GSX circuit pack.
Blue Fiber
Blue fiber is made up of a single blue colored fiber equipped with LC
connectors at both ends. It is referred to as Simplex LC Blue Fiber.
The Blue Fibers are custom cut to length for their application. The
length is given on the protection boot of the LC connector.
Gray Fiber
Blue fiber is made up of a multi-gray colored fiber equipped with LC
connectors at both ends. It is referred to as Multi-mode LC Gray
Fiber. The Gray Fibers are custom cut to length for their application.
The length is given on the protection boot of the LC connector.
Important!
Multi-mode fiber is only supported for use with the
LNW67 1GSX circuit pack.
Yellow Fiber
Simplex fibers are Yellow in color and come in six different lengths
(15, 20, 25, 30, 35 and 50 feet), as well as custom lengths.
Outside Fiber
Outside fiber is the fiber connecting the Customer equipment to the
DMXtend Access Multiplexer. Depending on the customers
specifications, these fibers may be any combination of SC, FC, or ST
connectors. The length of these fibers depends on the system interface
setup. This fiber is usually referred to as the Outside Bay or Plant
Fiber.
Outside Bay Fiber management should be specified by the customer. It
is beyond the scope of this document to specify the route or dressings
that the fiber should take once it leaves the equipment bays.
