Step 4. Clean Connectors and Prepare for Measurements
Fiber-optic connectors are easily damaged when connected to dirty or
damaged cables and accessories. The front-panel INPUT connector of the
Agilent 86140B series is no exception. When you use improper cleaning and
handling techniques, you risk expensive instrument repairs, damaged cables,
and compromised measurements. Before you connect any fiber-optic cable to

A front-panel connector saver is provided with Agilent 86140B series
instruments. Attach the connector saver to the front-panel INPUT connector of
the instrument. You can now make your connections to the connector saver
instead of the instrument. This will help prevent damage to the front-panel
INPUT connector of the instrument. Damage to the front-panel INPUT connector
is expensive in terms of both repair costs and down-time. Use the front-panel
connector saver to prevent damage to the front-panel INPUT connector.
Note
All product specifications apply to measurements made without using the front-panel
connector saver.
After the instrument has warmed up for at least 1 hour, perform an auto align
