Handling, safety, and environmental guidelines

Before you install a GBIC, SFP, or XFP, read the following handling, safety, and environmental guidelines:

•

GBICs, SFPs, and XFPs are static sensitive. To prevent damage from electrostatic discharge (ESD), see "Electrostatic discharge prevention"

(page 11).

•

GBICs, SFPs, and XFPs are dust sensitive. When you store a GBIC, SFP, or XFP, or when you disconnect it from a ﬁber optic cable, always keep a dust cover over the GBIC, SFP, or XFP optical bore.

•

To clean contaminants from the optical bores of a GBIC, SFP, or XFP, use an alcohol swab or equivalent to clean the ferrules of the optical connector.

•

Dispose of this product according to all national laws and regulations.

Electrostatic discharge prevention

To prevent equipment damage, observe the following electrostatic discharge (ESD) precautions when handling or installing the components.

•

Ground yourself and the equipment to an earth or building ground. Use a grounded workbench mat (or foam that dissipates static charge) and a grounding wrist strap. The wrist strap should touch the skin and be grounded through a one megaohm resistor.

12 Safety and regulatory information

•

Do not touch anyone who is not grounded.

•

Leave all components in their ESD-safe packaging until installation, and use only a static-shielding bag for all storage, transport, and handling.

•

Clear the area of synthetic materials such as polyester, plastic, vinyl, or styrofoam because these materials carry static electricity that damages the equipment.

Care of ﬁber optic equipment

Fiber optic equipment must be kept clean and damage-free. Use the information in this section to properly maintain and care for ﬁber optic equipment.

Fiber optic cable care

Although the glass ﬁber of ﬁber optic cable is protected with reinforcing material and plastic insulation, it is subject to damage. Use the following precautions to avoid damaging the glass ﬁber.

•

Do not kink, knot, or vigorously ﬂex the cable.

•

Do not bend the cable to less than a 40 mm radius.

•

Do not stand on ﬁber optic cable; keep the cable off the ﬂoor.

•

Do not pull ﬁber optic cable any harder than you would a cable containing copper wire of comparable size.

•

Do not allow a static load of more than a few pounds on any section of the cable.

•

Place protective caps on ﬁber optic connectors that are not in use.

•

Store unused ﬁber optic patch cables in a cabinet, on a cable rack, or ﬂat on a shelf.

Frequent overstressing of ﬁber optic cable causes progressive degeneration that leads to failure.

Page 13

If you suspect damage to a ﬁber optic cable, either due to mishandling or an abnormally high error rate observed in one direction, reverse the cable pairs. If the high error rate appears in the other direction, replace the cable.

CAUTION

Do not crush ﬁber optic cable. If ﬁber optic cable is in the same tray or duct with large, heavy electrical cables, it can be damaged by the weight of the electrical cable.

Fiber optic connector care

Before connecting them to transmission equipment, test equipment, patch panels, or other connectors, clean all ﬁber optic connectors. The performance of an optical ﬁber connector depends on how clean the connector and coupling are at the time of connection. Use the following cleaning procedures when analyzing ﬁber connector integrity.

If a connector performs poorly after cleaning, visually inspect the connector to determine the possible cause of the problem and to determine if it needs replacing.

Care of ﬁber optic equipment 13

WARNING

Do not look into the end of ﬁber optic cable. The light source used in ﬁber optic cables can damage your eyes.

To avoid getting debris in your eyes, wear safety glasses when working with the canned air duster.

To avoid eye irritation on contact, wear safety glasses when working with isopropyl alcohol.

Perform the following maintenance procedures to ensure that optical ﬁber assemblies function properly. To prevent them from collecting dust, make sure connectors are covered when not in use.

CAUTION

To prevent further contamination, clean ﬁber optic equipment only when there is evidence of contamination.

To prevent contamination, make sure the optical ports of all active devices are covered with a dust cap or optical connector.

To avoid the transfer of oil or other contaminants from your ﬁngers to the end face of the ferrule, handle connectors with care.

Procedure job aid: SFP models with DDI support

Digital Diagnostic Monitoring (DDM) allows the Metro Ethernet Routing Switch 8600 to monitor SFP laser operating characteristics. Metro Ethernet Routing Switch 8600 support for Digital Diagnostic Interfaces (DDI—an interface that supports DDM) involves data collection and alarm and warning monitoring. Static data collection includes the SFP vendor information, DDI support information, and DDI alarm and warning threshold values. Dynamic data collection includes temperature, supply voltage, laser bias current, transmit power, and receive power. DDM works at any time during active laser operation without affecting data trafﬁc.

The warning and alarm status bits are only checked during initialization and during requests for dynamic data. If an alarm or warning is asserted or cleared, a message is logged and a trap is generated. DDM warning

and alarm messages are mapped into WARNING and FATAL message categories for system logging purposes. If an alarm or warning is generated, the software does not automatically shut down the port.

CWDM SFPs are also supported. CWDM SFPs are designed to support high-speed data communications. A CWDM system uses a grid of wavelengths to provide multiple channels for both ring and point-to-point conﬁgurations. All components are color-coded by wavelength.

Any DDM SFP can be used in any Metro Ethernet Services Unit 1800 or 1850 device or Metro Ethernet Routing Switch 8600 module that supports SFPs. The optical functions of the SFP are supported. Access to the DDI information is only provided for:

•

Multiplexer speciﬁcations

This section describes multiplexer speciﬁcations. Use the speciﬁcations to help ensure proper network operation. Multiplexer loss values include connector loss.

There is one nanometer (nm) offset between the stated wavelength for the Coarse Wavelength Division Multiplexing (CWDM) Gigabit Interface Converters (GBIC) and the CWDM optical add/drop multiplexers (OADM) due to a shift in the center wavelength of the CWDM GBIC as it reaches typical system operating temperature.
