How to connect the optical cable to the optical cat

　　The process of connecting an optical cable to an optical cat is relatively simple, but some details need to be paid attention to to ensure a stable and reliable connection. Here are the detailed steps for connecting an optical cable to an optical cat:

　　Prepare tools and materials

　　Optical cable: Make sure that the ends of the cable have been welded or mechanically connected so that the optical signal can be transmitted.

　　Optical Network Terminal (ONT) is the end point device of optical fiber access network.

　　Optical fiber connector: Choose the appropriate connector according to the type of optical fiber interface, such as SC, LC, or FC.

　　Network cable: used to connect the LAN port of the light cat and the WAN port of the router (if required).

　　Fiber optic cutter (if applicable): If the end of the cable is not pretreated, it may be necessary to use a fiber optic cutter for cutting.

　　Second, connect the optical cable and the optical cat

　　Find the fiber optic interface of the light cat: There is usually a fiber optic interface dedicated to connecting the cable on the light cat.

　　Insert fiber optic connector: Insert the end of the fiber optic cable (installed fiber optic connector) into the fiber optic interface of the light cat. Make sure the insertion is firm and avoid loosening.

　　Fix the fiber optic connector: If the fiber optic connector has a fixing screw, tighten it to ensure a stable connection.

　　Connect the light cat and the router (optional)

　　If you need to connect the light cat to the router to extend network coverage or add wireless capabilities, you can follow these steps:

　　Find the LAN port of the light cat: There are usually multiple LAN ports on the light cat, choose an idle LAN port to connect.

　　Connect the network cable: Use a network cable, one end is connected to the LAN port of the light cat, and the other end is connected to the WAN port of the router.

　　Set up the router: follow the router's instructions or online help documents to set up, including logging in to the router management interface, setting the Internet access method, setting the wireless network, etc.

　　IV. Check the connection status

　　Check the indicator light: After the connection is completed, check the indicator light status of the light cat and the router. If the indicator light is on normally, it means the connection is successful.

　　Test network connection: Use a computer or other device to test the network connection to ensure that the network is unobstructed.

　　V. Precautions

　　During the connection process, avoid bending or pulling the cable to avoid affecting the signal transmission quality.

　　Make sure that the fiber optic connector matches the fiber optic interface of the light cat to avoid using incompatible connectors.

　　During the connection and setup process, read the instructions or online help documents of the light cat and router carefully to ensure correct operation.

　　Through the above steps, you can successfully connect the optical cable to the optical cat and enjoy high-speed and stable network services. If you encounter any problems, please contact the network service provider or professional technicians for consultation and solution.
