Features:
- Provides fiber-optic media on both sides of the Tricon CX I/O bus interface.
- Extends triplicated chassis communication through an optically isolated path.
- Uses less than eight watts of logic power in the documented system design.
The IMFF ordering configuration is intended for installations that retain fiber media across the complete interface.
It carries redundant I/O bus traffic between chassis while separating copper ground paths.
Project matching must include optical wavelength, fiber construction, connectors, route loss and chassis addressing.
Availability is subject to Apter Power inventory and sourcing confirmation.

- Connects Tricon CX chassis across plant areas where fiber is preferred for distance or electrical isolation.
- Maintains optical I/O bus segments through cabinet and field-routing boundaries.
- Supports redundant expansion topologies that require a fiber-to-fiber interface at the chassis.
- Fiber media carries each of the three I/O-bus channels across the expansion interface.
- Both sides of the IMFF connection use optical links rather than a mixed serial-and-fiber arrangement.
- Compatible transceivers, fiber mode and connector type must remain consistent across the complete path.
- The optical path provides electrical separation between the connected chassis areas.
- Connector end faces require cleaning and protection from contamination before coupling.
- Specified bend-radius limits must be maintained so the fiber is not damaged or attenuated by installation stress.
- Chassis addresses and paired interface positions must follow the approved Tricon CX expansion topology.
- The fiber route should be verified end to end before the triplicated bus is returned to service.
- A serial 4701X interface is not interchangeable without redesigning the media and adjoining bus connections.
