11Important note regarding optical fiber:
Fiber optic cleanliness is paramount for proper signal transmission, because
dust and other microscopic particles can disturb or block the signal. It isrecommended to keep dust caps on unused connectors to reduce the riskof contamination, and to clean both fiber optic cables and connectors using
proper fiber optic cleaning equipment before connecting them. In case of
weak signal, or lack of signal, the first remedial step should be to clean thecables and connectors.

INSTALLATIONChassis

The modular chassis can be mounted in a standard 19” rack. Slide the chassis into the desired
rack location, with the internal module rails downward. Secure the chassis to the rack using
appropriate rack screws.

Modules
Insert the modules in the modular chassis
until you feel the click indicating that they
are secured in the internal chassis rails.
If the modules do not slide smoothly into
the chassis, verify that the internal rails arelocated at the bottom of the chassis, and thatthe modules are aligned with the internal rails,
with the modules’ front text upright.

out A in
NETWORK DEVICE A

out B in
NETWORK DEVICE B

Connect the TAP as shown above.

The out (Tx) ports of Net A and Net B on the TAP should be connected to the in(Rx) ports of the in-line network devices, and the in (Rx) ports to the out (Tx) ports.
Connecting the network ports incorrectly prevents the analyzer (TAP) fromreceiving any signal.
The out (Tx) ports of TAP AB should be connected to the analyzer using split duplex
cables, and to RX only transceivers.
