Measurement Accuracy
The Agilent 83482A optical/electrical plug-in module's input circuitry can be
damaged when the total input power levels exceed +18 dBm on the optical
channel or 10 dBm on the electrical channel. To prevent input damage, this
specified level must not be exceeded.
Measurement accuracy—it's up to you!
Fiber-optic connectors are easily damaged when connected to dirty or damaged cables
and accessories. The Agilent 83482A optical/electrical plug-in module's front-panel
INPUT connector is no exception. When you use improper cleaning and handling tech-
niques, you risk expensive instrument repairs, damaged cables, and compromised mea-
surements.
Before you connect any fiber-optic cable to the Agilent 83482A optical/electrical plug-in
module, "Cleaning Connections for Accurate Measurements" on page 5-7.
