A simple power loss test can inform us about the condition of the 

fibers. This test consists in measuring (with an optical power meter) 
the output power at one end of the tested fiber when a fiber source is 

connected at the other end. If the values are in dBm, the difference 
between the input power and the output power gives the power 

attenuation of the fiber (in dB). 

 

In case the above equipment is not available, a simple visual test may 
be performed to locate and reject badly damaged fibers. Place a light 

source at one end of the fiber and intermittently block it and observe 
the light coming out of the other end. (This procedure does not 

guarantee that a fiber is acceptable)

Note 

The fiberoptic cables must be installed by a qualified person. 

HANDLE THE FIBERS VERY CAREFULLY. 

 

Type   

 

For connecting the Transceiver to the peripheral equipment, 2-pair 

STP Category 5 cable is required (one pair for transmission, the other 
for reception). This cable must be a straight one when the peripheral 

has an MDI-X 100Base-TX interface and a Cross one otherwise. 

 

For PoE (Power over Ethernet), 2 more pairs STP Category 5 cable are 

required. (Use only for the Low Voltage version: TS100/A/FET/V3) 

 

Connectors  

The cable should be terminated with an RJ-45 connector at the 
Transceiver end.
