Product Usage Instructions
Installation
- Ensure that the fiber optic hardware or NIC card is powered off before connecting the cable.
- Locate the LC connectors on both ends of the cable.
- Gently remove the protective caps from the LC connectors.
- Align the LC connectors with the corresponding ports on the fiber optic hardware or NIC card.
- Insert the LC connectors into the ports, ensuring a secure connection.
- Repeat the steps for the other end of the cable.
Maintenance
To maintain optimal performance, follow these guidelines:
- Avoid excessive bending or twisting of the cable.
- Keep the connectors clean and free from dust or debris.
- Avoid exposing the cable to extreme temperatures or moisture.
- If any damage or deterioration is observed, replace the cable immediately.
Troubleshooting
If you experience any issues with the cable, consider the following
troubleshooting steps:
- Check if the connectors are securely inserted into the ports.
- Inspect the cable for any visible damage or breaks.
- Try using a different fiber optic hardware or NIC card to isolate the issue.
- Contact customer support if the problem persists.
