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 learn how to prevent damage from electrostatic discharge (ESD), see "Electrostatic discharge

prevention" (page 11).

•

GBICs, SFPs, and XFPs use optical connectors whose performance can be reduced by dust contamination. 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.

•

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.

•

Do not touch anyone who is not grounded.

12 Safety and equipment care information

•

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 anyharder 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.

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

Risk of equipment damage

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, ensure ﬁber optic connectors are clean. The performance of an optical ﬁber connector depends on how clean the connector and coupling are at the time of connection.

A damaged or dirty connector can damage a connector with which it is mated. A connector must be absolutely clean before it is inserted into a transmitter or receiver.

Never clean an optical connector that is carrying light. Optical power can cause ignition of the cleaning material when it contacts the end of the optical connector, destroying the connector. Typical cleaning materials, for example, tissues saturated with alcohol, combust almost instantaneously when exposed to optical power levels of +15 dBm or higher.

Care of ﬁber optic equipment 13

Visually inspect the connector to determine cleanliness and to determine if it needs replacing. Any connector that has a scratch across the core, or a scratch that appears to end in the core, must be replaced.

The proper connector cleaning method depends on the connector contaminants:

• Cleanliness is best judged by visual inspection with a ﬁber microscope.

First inspect the connector, then clean as required.

WARNING

Risk of eye injury

When inspecting a connector, ensure that light sources are off. The light source used in ﬁber optic cables can damage your eyes.

•

If you suspect only the possibility of dust particles (for example, which can occur when a connector is left uncapped in a clean environment), use high-quality canned air or a reel cleaner (for example, a Cletop) to clean the connector. A reel cleaner is a good choice for making sure that no dust contaminates the connector.

•

If the connector is visibly dirty or suspected to be contaminated by chemicals (for example, matching gel), use high-quality alcohol and

14 Safety and equipment care information

canned air to clean the connector (see the following procedure). This is the most thorough cleaning method. In some cases, a reel cleaner may sufﬁce.

Always keep in mind that the more surface manipulation applied to the connector, the more likely the connector to become damaged.

When you insert a connector ferrule into a connector or adapter, ensure that the ferrule tip does not touch the outside of the mating connector or adapter. This can produce scratches and dirt deposits on the connector.

To help prevent them from collecting dust, ensure connectors are covered when not in use. To avoid the transfer of oil or other contaminants from your ﬁngers to the end face of the ferrule, handle connectors with care. Do not touch the connector end face.

Cleaning single connectors

Clean connectors so that the optical signal is minimally attenuated by the connector.

This procedure is appropriate when more than dust contamination is suspected.

Prerequisites

•

lens-grade, lint-free tissue (for example, Kimwipes)

•

optical-grade isopropyl alcohol (IPA) (98% or more pure)

•

high-quality canned compressed air with extension tube Compressed air must be free of dust, water and oil, or ﬁlmy deposits or scratches on the surface of the connector can result.

•

ﬁber optic microscope for inspecting connectors

WARNING

Risk of eye injury

When inspecting a connector, ensure that light sources are off. 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.

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) involvesdata 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

1000BASE-BX DDI SFP speciﬁcations

The 1000BASE-BX bidirectional SFPs (part numbers AA1419069-E6 and AA1419070-E6) provide Gigabit Ethernet connectivity over a single ﬁber.

Figure 6 1000BASE-BX

As shown in the previous ﬁgure, the transmit (Tx) and receive (Rx) paths share the same ﬁber by using two different wavelengths. One model transmits at 1310 nm and receives at 1490 nm, while the mating model transmits at 1490 nm and receives at 1310 nm. You can only connect a mating pair.

You can use 1000BASE-BX SFPs to double the number of your ﬁber links. For example, if you have 20 installed ﬁber pairs with 20 conventional ports connected, you can use 1000BASE-BX SFPs to expand to 40 ports, using the same ﬁber.
