Page 1 - 4 INTRODUCTION Figure 1-1. FOT-F3 A fiber optic cable is connected to the transceiver through ST fiber optic ports on the FOT-F3. This provides an optical link to connect the device to the network. The fiber optic link segment can run from the FOT-F3 to any Ethernet FOIRL compatible fiber optic device.
Page 1 - 5 INTRODUCTION An AUI cable, up to 50 meters long, is used to connect an Ethernet device to the AUI port on the transceiver. The AUI cable must meet specifications for either IEEE 802.
Page 1 - 6 INTRODUCTION Application The FOT-F3 can be configured into your network in many ways. For example, a fiber optic link segment (4, Fig. 1-2) can be attached to a Cabletron Systems’ Multi Media Access Center (MMAC ) (5) with a FOMIM-32/36/38.
Page 1 - 7 INTRODUCTION In another example, an FOT-F3 (3, Fig. 1-3) is connected to an MMAC (1) by an AUI cable (2) attached to an Intelligent Repeater Module (IRM ) in the MMAC. A lengthy fiber optic link segment (4), up to ten kilometers, runs from the FOT-F3 and to a Cabletron Systems’ NB25 bridge (7).

Page 3 - 1 INSTALLATION CHAPTER 3 INSTALLING THE FOT-F3 This chapter contains instructions for unpacking your Cabletron Systems’ FOT-F3 Transceiver, connecting the FOT-F3 to an Ethernet device and the network, installing cable supports, and mounting the transceiver (if necessary).
Page 3 - 2 INSTALLATION • One set of Velcro mounts • Two cable mounts (for strain relief) • Two cable ties (0.1 x 4 inches). If you notice any discrepancies, contact Cabletron Systems’ Technical Support immediately.
Page 3 - 3 INSTALLATION NOTE: The SQE test function must be disabled if you are connecting the transceiver to Ethernet Version 1 equipment or to a repeater. Set the SQE Switch as follows: • To disable the SQE test function, set the switch (Fig. 3-1) towards the optical ports to the off (o) setting.
Page 3 - 4 INSTALLATION 3.2.2 Connecting the AUI Cable To connect your Ethernet device to the FOT-F3, attach an AUI cable as follows. See Figure 3-2. 1. Attach an AUI cable to the device to which the FOT-F3 will be connected. 2. Attach the female connector on the AUI cable to the AUI port on the FOT-F3.
Page 3 - 5 INSTALLATION If the PWR LED is not lit, perform the following steps: a. Verify that the power is turned on for the device attached to the FOT-F3. b. Disconnect the AUI from the FOT-F3. c. Disconnect the device to which the transceiver is attached.
Page 3 - 6 INSTALLATION NOTE: We recommend labeling the fiber optic cable to indicate which fiber is Receive and which is Transmit. When you buy fiber optic cable from Cabletron Systems, at one end of the cable, one fiber is labeled 1, and the other fiber is labeled 2.
Page 3 - 7 INSTALLATION Figure 3-3. ST Connectors 2. Attach the fiber labeled 1 to the bottom port, labeled RX on the FOT-F3. 3. Attach the fiber labeled 2 to the top port, labeled TX . 4. At the other end of the fiber optic cable, attach the fiber labeled 1 to the transmit port of the device.
Page 3 - 8 INSTALLATION 6. Check that the LNK LED on the FOT-F3 is lit. If the LED is not lit, perform each of the following steps until the LED is lit: a. Check that the power is on for the device at the other end of the link. b. Verify that the fiber strands are properly connected to each port.
Page 3 - 9 INSTALLATION • Allows the AUI cable to be easily connected from the transceiver to the workstation. • Has a smooth, dirt-free surface which will easily accept the adhesive bonds. Mount the FOT-F3 as follows: 1. Separate the two 1.5" x 3" Velcro mounts.
Page 3 - 10 INSTALLATION NOTE: Be sure each cable is securely attached to its port and that the slide latch on the AUI connector is secured to the lock posts on the AUI port. See Figure 3-2. To strain relief the cables for a wall-mounted FOT-F3 (Fig. 3-4): 1.

Page 4 - 1 TESTING AND TROUBLESHOOTING CHAPTER 4 TESTING AND TROUBLESHOOTING This chapter lists procedures to test the FOT-F3 Fiber Optic Transceiver after it has been connected to the network. A description of LANVIEW and its function in troubleshooting physical layer network problems are also given.
Page 4 - 2 TESTING AND TROUBLESHOOTING 4.1.1 Testing the Fiber Optic Link Segment Test the segment being attached to the FOT-F3 to verify that the cable meets the fiber budget specifications discussed in Chapter 2. Using a fiber optic power meter set, test your link segment as follows: 1.
Page 4 - 3 TESTING AND TROUBLESHOOTING 8. Take note of the reading on the optical power meter. This is your test level. 9. Subtract the reference level found in step 4 from the test level to find your dB loss for the fiber optic link segment, i.e., dB loss = Test Level - Reference Level.
