RADIO FREQUENCY INTERFERENCE STATEMENTS

This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio-frequency energy, and

if not installed and used properly, that is, in strict accordance with the

manufacturer’s instructions, may cause interference to radio communication.

It has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A

computing device in accordance with the specifications in Subpart B of Part

15 of FCC rules, which are designed to provide reasonable protection

against such interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial

environment. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to

cause interference, in which case the user at his own expense will be

required to take whatever measures may be necessary to correct the

interference.

Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible

for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

This digital apparatus does not exceed the Class A limits for radio noise

emission from digital apparatus set out in the Radio Interference Regulation

of Industry Canada.

Le présent appareil numérique n’émet pas de bruits radioélectriques

dépassant les limites applicables aux appareils numériques de la classe A

prescrites dans le Règlement sur le brouillage radioélectrique publié par le

Industrie Canada.

Introduction

The Single Mode latching Fiber Optic A/B Switch is a

full-duplex, optical 2 port switch. It can be used to connect

one workstation to two different networks (one at a time)

or to other remote devices. A front panel rotary style knob

allows the user to select which of two ports (A or B) is

connected to the COMMON (C) port on the switch. The

switch operates using a unique all-optical micro-mirror

movement. When you turn the rotary knob on the front of

the switch to select a network, the internal micro-mirror

movement redirects the optical beam from one network

port to another network port by rotating a miniature mirror.

This technique eliminates the need to convert optical

signals to electronic signals for switching and is therefore

transparent to data rates and protocols.

This switch is perfectly suited for applications where a

selected connection must be maintained in the event of a

power failure. You should use a non-latching fiber optic

switch for applications requiring a switch that falls back to

pre-determined connection during the loss of AC power

(please call us). These switches use power only for

switching the selected connection. No power is required to

pass data through the switches.

Installation

Place the switch in a convenient stable location and

connect the power supply unit to a reliable source of AC

power that meets the requirements shown in the

Specifications section of this manual. Then change the

front panel rotary knob to switch between the different

connection states to insure that the latching fiber optic

switch modules are in a known position before

connecting the switch to your fiber optic devices.

Connect the two fiber leads from the device to be shared

to the common switch port labeled C. Connect the

networks or other devices to the user selectable output

ports labeled A and B.

Your installation of this switch is now complete.

Troubleshooting

If the Fiber Optic A/B Switch fails to operate, check the

following before calling for technical support.

1. Ensure that the power supply connected to a power

source and to the switch.

2. Check the fiber optic connectors for proper

connections to the correct ports of the switch.

3. Operate the switch knob to verify that it’s tightly

secured to the switch shaft and does not spin loosely.

4. Verify the integrity of the fiber optic leads by

replacing a suspect lead with a spare.
