Retrofit MOST fiber optic cable wiring harness - AN82.61-P-0001-06TAZ

Danger of breaking!  Do not kink fiber optic cable and do not route over sharp edges or bend in radii smaller than 25 mm. Tensile forces on inserts must not exceed 65 N. Do not squeeze fiber optic cable and do not compress with clamps or cable ties.

1. Press locking tab (arrow) of the MOST wiring harness ordered outward slightly and pull the black, 2-pin MOST connector (14) out of the MOST connector housing (11).
