Do not touch the tips of the front-panel input or output connectors. The optical
interface on the Agilent 11980A is composed of precision-polished single-mode
connectors that are easily scratched. Any damage to the optical interface will
increase the insertion loss of the Agilent 11980A and damage the connector
interfaces.
