Extend the remote peer ring with SISNet distance extenders

Note

The multimode fiber-optic cable on the SISNet Repeater connects to the SISNet Distance Extender through a conversion cable. The SISNet Repeater end of the conversion cable has an ST male and the SISNet Distance Extender end of the conversion cable has an SC male.

  1. Install the SISNet Distance Extender on the DIN rail.
  2. Connect multimode fiber-optic cable TxD to RxD between the SISNet Repeaters and SISNet Distance Extenders.
  3. Place a single mode fiber-optic cable end onto the SISNet Distance Extender's RxD terminal and push the cable into place.
  4. Place the other end onto the TxD terminal of the predecessor SISNet Distance Extender and push the cable into place.
  5. Place a single mode fiber-optic cable end onto the SISNet Distance Extender's TxD terminal and push the cable into place.
  6. Place the other end onto the RxD terminal of the successor SISNet Distance extender and push the cable into place.
  7. Connect together all SISNet Distance Extenders.
