    62.5/125 mm. Use UCI (universal connector interface) series adapters to couple alternate cable types to the optical module. Refer to the Tektronix Web site for details. Attach the fiber optic cable to the optical input receptacle as follows: CAUTION.
  • Page 22: System Interaction

    To avoid damaging the optical input of the module, attenuate the input optical signal to the absolute maximum optical signal levels listed above. NOTE. The 80C14 module can have a somewhat deteriorated response for signals greater than 800 μW (1310 nm and 1550 nm) and 1300 μW (850 nm).
  • Page 23: Front Panel Controls

    The optical input connector uses a universal connector interface (UCI) that allows use of many standard fiber-optic female connector styles. Some of the standard UCI interfaces supported are FC, ST, SC, and DIN. (Refer to a current Tektronix catalog for details. Go to www.tek.com to download the latest catalog.)

    Operating Basics Outputs The 80C14 module provides buffered electrical signal outputs. For clock recovery purposes, route this signal to the input of an CR175A or CR286A Electrical Clock Recovery instrument. CAUTION. Electrostatic discharge (ESD) will cause permanent damage to electrical outputs. Adhere to standard ESD handling precautions when using the outputs.
