1.0 Safety Instructions
The optical devices used in this equipment are Hazard Level 1M. As required by IEC60825-1, the
installer is responsible for insuring that the label depicted below is present in the restricted locations
where this equipment is installed.
This assembly contains parts sensitive to damage by electrostatic discharge (ESD).
Use ESD precaution procedures when touching, removing or inserting parts or
assemblies.
Units are not waterproof; please install in an appropriate NEMA Enclosure.
When units are installed in extremely hot environments, the metal enclosures
may become hot to the touch. Please install is restricted areas where properly
trained personnel have access.
The safety information contained in this section, and on other pages of this manual,
must be observed whenever this unit is operated, serviced, or repaired. Failure to

2.0 Fiber Installation Hints
Fiber Information
Alba Fiber Transmission Systems are manufactured with optical connector covers to keep them
from accumulating dirt. In addition to safety precautions, our manual also provides the following
guidelines when working with optical fibers.
Please maintain optical fiber connectors as clean as possible to reduce loss of optical
transmission output. Cleanliness is extremely important to proper operations.
1. Protect optical connectors by leaving the connector covers in place on unused fiber
connections and on the fiber tips themselves.
a. Personnel who remove and replace fiber connectors or fiber pigtails should be equipped
with a fiber cleaning kit. These are available as off-the-shelf items from a supplier of fiber
optic accessories.
b. Propyl Alcohol and lint-free tissue or cloth may be used to clean fiber connector tips.
c. Do not use rubbing alcohol mixed with water. This can cause additional spots.
d. Clean the fiber by pulling the connector tip across the tissue, then turn the connector 90
degrees and repeat it in a different spot on the tissue.
e. Don’t pull the fiber across and then push it back. This will put the dirt that was cleaned off
back on again.
f. Repeat the process on a dry, folded tissue.
2. When removing fiber cables from fiber system ports, it is good practice to clean them again.
3. Installer must pay attention to the bend radius of the fibers. A general rule is to have a 3-
inch (8cm) bend radius. A bend radius less than 3 inches may cause attenuation also known
as optical signal loss.
4. Installers of fiber equipment should be equipped with an Optical Light Source an Optical
Power Meter to measure the optical inputs and outputs in a system. These instruments are
available from Alba at great savings, especially to our customers. The use of these tools will
save much time and effort in getting optical communications links up and running. Properly
equipped and trained installers can quickly determine the source of any problems that occur.

5.0 Installation
The ALBA FIBER SYSTEMS Series AFS6514 products are interchangeable between Standalone
and Rackmount. Cards units occupy one slot in Alba’s standard 19"x4U chassis series AFS945-1
with one power supply (total 15 cards) or ASF945-2 with 2 power supplies. To install card and
power supply, keep the orientation of Alba logo on top and slide onto the top and bottom card
guides in the chassis. Press securely on the top and bottom of the card to ensure that it is fully
seated so that the electrical connector mates with the chassis-mounted motherboard. Once
installed, manually tighten the two thumbscrews located at the top and bottom of the card. Do
not use tools to secure these and do not over tighten.
