Notes on avoiding damage to optical fibers during repair work - AH82.60-P-0001-05AK

Model 164, 169.0/3, 171.4, 197, 203, 204, 207, 209, 211.0/2/6, 212, 216.3, 218, 221.0/1, 230, 245.2, 251, 454 with Media Oriented System Transport (MOST) 

For all repair work requiring that fiber optic cable couplings be separated, the following handling notes must be observed, otherwise the damping of the light pulses transferred will compromise the data transfer quality.

• For repair work, the protective caps of the fiber optic cables at the device connection or at the connector of the optical wiring harness must not be prematurely detached.
• Separated fiber optic cable couplings must be immediately covered.
• Do not kink fiber optic cable, route over sharp edges or in radii smaller than 25 mm.
• The fiber optic cable must not be exposed to temperatures greater than 85°C or lesser than minus 40°C.

The protective caps of the fiber optic cables at the device connection or at the connector of the optical wiring harness cannot be separately acquired. The protective caps of the installed replacement parts or clean dry cloths can be used.
