WOWOW after several hours and many many cuts and gashes on my hands I FINALLY got it working. For the record the dension directions are the WORST!! Someone really should write up a proper DIY for this

very strange to get mine to work i literally unplugged the cdc removed the connector that does power + fiber optic then placed the fiber cable into the dension connector and just plugged that into the dension did not even need the 2 extra fiber optic cables (maybe need them if u keep the cdc changer i dint bother lol)

You do remove one optic connecter from the larger plug so you do split them in a sense.
At least it's working now.
Congrats!
