Publication 1786-IN011B-EN-P - October 2000
About the Fiber Module
Use this module when a medium-distance (distances of 3000m/ 9843ft) fiber link is
required between two ControlNet products. This fiber link provides ground
isolation between nodes and is less susceptible to noisy environments than
traditional copper media.
The module provides:
two fiber channels
activity LED indicators for each fiber channel
Figure 1 Components of the Module
IMPORTANT
The distance that can be supported is dependent on the quality
of the fiber, number of splices, and connectors. The total loss of
the fiber link must be less than 13.3 dB.

Mount the Fiber Module
To mount the module on the DIN rail:
1. Position the module on a 35 x 7.5mm DIN rail (Allen- Bradley part number
199- DR1; 46277- 3; EN 50022) at a 30
o
angle.
2. Hook the lip on the rear of the module onto the top of the DIN rail, and
rotate the module onto the rail.

3. Press the module down onto the DIN rail until flush.
The locking tab should snap into position and lock
the module to the DIN rail.
4. If the module does not snap into position, use a screwdriver or similar
device to move the locking tab down while pressing the module flush onto
the DIN rail. Release the locking tab to lock the module in place. If
necessary, push up on the locking tab to lock.

Publication 1786-IN011B-EN-P - October 2000
5. Remove the protective backplane cap as shown in “Remove the Protective
Caps” on page 10.
6. Once attached to the DIN rail, slide modules to the left to mate with the
repeater adapter or another repeater module.
7. Connect the fiber cable as shown in “Connect the Fiber Cable” on page 13.
ATTENTION
!
Be certain that the adapter and repeater modules are secured
together with DIN rail anchors. Failure to do so may result in
the loss of communications and/ or cause damage to the
modules. The total number of modules that can be attached to
the repeater adapter can not exceed four or the total power
consumption of the modules can not exceed 1.6A @ 5VDC,
whichever comes first.
IMPORTANT
If you exceed the module or power limit, you may cause
damage to the repeater adapter and modules.
IMPORTANT
If this is the right–most module, a DIN rail latch must be used
on the right side of the fiber module.

Remove the Protective Caps
1. Remove the protective caps from the fiber ports that you are going to use.
2. Save the caps for future use.
Figure 2 Protective Caps
If you plan: Then:
not to use channel(s) keep the protective caps on the channels to protect
the unit from dust.
to place the module in storage keep the protective caps on the channels to protect
the unit from dust.
to connect another module to the right
backplane connector
remove the protective backplane cap and save cap
or future use.
not to connect to the right backplane connector leave the backplane cap on.

Choose Fiber Cable Types
Multi-fiber cables for backbone use are available with a wide range of fiber counts;
between 2 and 216 fibers. Rockwell offers the short distance (< 300 m) fiber cable
preterminated “zipcord” as a kit for use with the 1786-RPFS fiber module. You
terminate the medium and long distance (> 300 m) cable in the field.
The type of fiber cable you choose to use depends on the network environment.
Consult your installation professional to determine the best type of cable to use for
your environmental conditions. Refer to Publication CNET-IN001A-EN-P, The
ControlNet Fiber Media Planning and Installation
Guide, for details.
The following figure shows an example of a
multi-fiber backbone cable and two fiber interconnect
cable.
Figure 3 Cable Types
What is termination?
Termination is simply the process of attaching a connector to the ends of our fiber
cable. This is done in a similar manner as the coax BNC is terminated to the end of
a coax cable. We terminate the coax network at the two ends of the network to
prevent reflections in the system. This is not required for fiber. We recommend that
you cover unused ports with a suitable protector cap to prevent dust and other
contaminants from damaging the fiber transceiver ports. The protector cap for fiber
is equivalent to the dust cap for a ControlNet Tap drop cable.
However, for a ControlNet drop cable we also provide a 1786-TCAP for unused
taps to make them electronically transparent to the network. For the Fiber repeaters
we recommend that a simplex jumper be placed between the transmit port and
receive port of an unused channel. This is somewhat similar to the 1786-TCAP for
the coax. See Figure 2 on page 10.

Specifications for 1786-RPFM Fiber Optic Cable
The quality of the fiber cable determines the distance you can achieve. Consult
your local distributor for attenuation specifications prior to purchasing your fiber
media components. The table below provides specifications for fiber optic cable:
The medium-distance fiber module (1786-RPFM) is designed for use with 62.5/
125µm multi-mode optic fiber and plastic or ceramic ST type connectors. The
wavelength used is 1300 nm.
Estimate Cable Lengths
The maximum length of a fiber cable section for the 1786-RPFM is dependent on
the quality of the fiber, number of splices, and the number of connectors. The total
attenuation for a cable section must be less than 13.3dB.
Typically cable attenuation for a wavelength of 1300nm is less than 1.5dB/km.

This includes all loss associated with the fiber link, including: splices, fiber attenuation, bulkhead connectors,
and the 1786–RPFM ST terminations.
IMPORTANT
Avoid splicing your cable. Connectors can cause considerable
attenuation and limit the maximum length of your system. Be
certain to check the attenuation of different cable sections
after the cable is installed.

Publication 1786-IN011B-EN-P - October 2000
Connect the Fiber Cable
If you are going to use only one channel, use either Channel 1 or Channel 2.
To connect the cable for Channel 1:
1. Connect to Channel 1 Receive (RX).
a. Align the knob of the cable connector with the groove of the module
connector, and insert the connector into Channel 1 RX.
Figure 4 Connect the Fiber Cable
b. Twist the Receive connector until the bayonet lug is locked into place
2. Connect to Channel 1 Transmit (TX), repeat Step 1.
To connect the fiber cable to Channel 2:
1. Repeat the steps for Channel 1 and refer to the following figure.
