DEFINITY Made Easy Tools
Issue 3, December 2001
Install and Connect Multi-Carrier Cabinets
Connect Fiber Optic Interconnect Cabling
Signals between the cabinets are carried by fiber optic cables. Lightwave transceivers provide the required fiber optic interface.
The fiber optic cables from the DEFINITY ECS route to a Lightguide Interconnect Unit (LIU) or fiber optic shelf. Go to Connecting and Handling Fiber Optic Cables for fiber optic equipment, connecting to LIUs or shelves, and routing through lightguide equipment.
Use multi-mode fiber transceivers and multi-mode fiber optic cables between cabinets unless single-mode fiber is required (distance restrictions). Use metallic cables between carriers.
