Making Measurements
In this chapter, you'll learn how to make a variety of fast, accurate
measurements. As you perform these measurements, keep in mind the
following points:
• 1270–1650 maximum input wavelength range
• +10 dBm maximum total displayed input power
• Laser linewidths assumed to be less than 5 GHz
• If you change the elevation where you will be using your
Agilent 86120C, refer to
• Press the green Preset key to return the Agilent 86120C to its default
state.
Do not exceed +18 dBm source power. The Agilent 86120C's input circuitry can
C A U T I O N
be damaged when total input power exceeds 18 dBm. You can measure power
levels that are greater by adding attenuation and entering a power offset as
described in
2-2
"Calibrating Measurements" on page 2-
"To measure total power exceeding 10 dBm" on page
37.
