The fiber optic cable is made up of the following components as shown below.
The nodes communicate by sending a laser beam signal over the fiber optic cable. Once the EXNET-ONE I/O card is installed and the laser beam is active, do not look into the EXNET ports. You may damage your eyes.
If you install an EXNET-ONE I/O card without the fiber optic cable inserted in the EXNET ports, insert the plastic I/O Port Plug in the ports.
