Fiber-Optic MOST Data Bus, Notes



Fiber-optic MOST Data Bus, Notes
In a MOST data bus system, a fiber-optic cable (FOC) is used as the data transmission media. FOC are routed in corrugated tubes for protection.

FOCs cannot be repaired; the entire cable must be replaced in the event troubleshooting indicates a malfunction.

CAUTION:
- Ensure FOC connector end faces remain clean when disconnected. In the event connectors must be separated, install protective caps.
- When installing FOC, do not exceed minimum bending radius of 25 mm. Do not crush or kink FOC.
