    LSSM WARNING Read and understand all of the instructions and safety information in this manual before operating this tool. LASER HAZARD Please note that 1310nm and 1550nm wavelengths are not visible to the human eye. Do not look directly into the output port of the LSSM or directly into any fiber connector that may be live. Since the laser is invisible to the eye, the eye’s natural blink reflex is suppressed.
  • Page 5 LSSM OUTPUT PORT MAINTENANCE The LSSM utilizes a physical fiber connection at the output port. It ensures a steady power level for performing insertion loss tests. Ensure that any test jumpers are inspected and cleaned before plugging into the LSSM unit. If soiled or damaged connectors are inserted, they can cause damage to the LSSM output port and the unit may need to be repaired.

    LSSM TESTING NOTES Blue connectors (UPC) have a straight ferrule with a domed interface. Green connectors (APC) have an eight-degree angled ferrule with a domed interface. UPC and APC connectors are not compatible. connect UPC and APC connectors together, OR plug NEVER an APC connector into the LSSM unit.
