28 GHz SONET OC-3 IFU Installation - R1.0 1-11Installation OverviewThis chapter provides an overview of the installation procedure for the Invisible Fiber™ unit (IFU). In addition, this chapter describes:nIFU Link ManagernPower sourcenCablesnSystem grounding and surge suppression Installation OverviewIFUs are loaded with default system attributes at the factory. At the customer’s designated staging area, the customer-specific attributes, identified in the site database, are downloaded to the IFU, which is then ready for installation. At the installation site, the IFU is installed on a mounting bracket, aligned, and commissioned. When all installation tests are complete and expected results are achieved on all IFU sites, the network is ready for customer acceptance.Site Engineering FolderBefore installing the IFU, the site must be prepared with the appropriate cables, demarcation box, and any equipment as detailed in the site engineering folder. (Refer to the Invisible Fiber™ SONET OC-3 Site Evaluation Guide for details about the contents of the site engineering folder).The site engineering folder is referenced throughout this document. Photos and diagrams of the site are included in the folder.
Installation Overview1-2 © 1999 Triton Network Systems, Inc. All Rights Reserved.IFU Link ManagerThe IFU Link Manager is a local element management software application that helps you configure and commission the IFU. You use this application to complete the following procedures:nIFU configurationnAntenna alignmentnLink commissioning testsPower SourceThe IFUs require a – 48 Vdc power source. The specifications of the power source are defined in the site engineering folder.CablingIFU installations require two types of cables:Power Connects the IFU to the – 48 Vdc power source.Fiber OpticConnects the IFU to the site equipment cabinet.Power CableThe power cable is outdoor/indoor rated. The power cable contains four 12 AWG conductors. Fiber Optic CableFor SONET networks, the IFU requires a multimode/single-mode, fiber optic cable (see Figure 1-1).
System Grounding and Surge Protection28 GHz SONET OC-3 IFU Installation - R1.0 1-3System Grounding and Surge ProtectionThe IFU grounding system has two conceptually distinct, but electrically interconnected functional subsystems, for connection to “earth ground.” The two functional subsystems are:nEarth ground (complies with the National Electrical Code (NEC) for equipment grounding systems).nSurge protection.Earth GroundThe IFU has an external electrical interconnection point for connecting the IFU ground subsystems to earth ground. Surge ProtectionThe sole purpose of surge protection is to transport lightning-related currents to the earth ground. During site installation, surge suppression devices are installed inline with the power and alarm conductors to assist in protecting equipment.

Fiber fragments can enter the skin and are difficult to detect and remove.AVERTISSEMENT : Ne jamais laisser une fibre nue entrer en contact avec une partie quelconque du corps. Des fragments de fibre peuvent entrer dans la peau, et sont difficiles à déceler et à enlever.DANGER: Invisible laser radiation. Avoid direct eye exposure to the end of a fiber, fiber cord, or fiber pigtail. The infrared light used in fiber optics systems is invisible, but can cause serious injury to the eye.AVERTISSEMENT : Rayonnement laser invisible. Éviter l’exposition directe des yeux à l’extrémité d’une fibre, d’un cordon à fibres ou d’une fibre amorce. La lumière infrarouge utilisée dans les systèmes à fibres optiques est invisible, mais peut provoquer des lésions graves aux yeux.CAUTION: Ensure the outside optical fiber connectors are environmentally protected. Failure to do so may cause contamination of the fiber surfaces.MISE EN GARDE : S’assurer que les raccords extérieurs fibre optique sont protégés contre l’environnement. L’absence d’une telle protection peut entraîner la contamination des surfaces des fibres.

The measured voltage of the multimeter displays a succession of peak signals as the IFU moves. Specifically, the signal displays a “small” peak, a relatively higher peak, and then redisplays the “small” peak. Note the approximate position of the IFU when the higher peak occurs and the corresponding voltage value. The peak voltage should be approximately 3 Vdc. 4Move the IFU to the higher peak position as indicated by the multimeter display.5Tighten the four vertical screws on the IFU mounting bracket.6Loosen the horizontal alignment nut on the IFU mounting bracket.

A pure OC-12 SONET channel carries 622.08 Mbps.OC-48Optical Carrier level 48. Optical signal designed to receive and transmit SONET. A pure OC-48 SONET channel carries 2.4 Gbps.OOSOut Of Service. System status indicating that the IFU is currently not in service and is not expected to recover on its own. Service is required.operating systemSee OS.OSOperating System. Program that loads when a computer is booted and manages all the other applications in the computer.outdoor repeater siteLocation used to extend a consecutive point network.PpasswordA string of characters entered by a user, typically in a Login screen, to gain access to a computer system.path loss allowanceThe net amount of amplification given to the signal in an IFU link, including margins for adequate received SNR and channel fading. In other words, path loss allowance is equal to the system gain plus the antenna gains.payloadUser traffic transported over a network
