Caution
To prevent damage to the tester or cables under
test and to prevent data loss:

Do not connect the tester to an active network.
Doing so causes unreliable test results, can disrupt
network operations, and can cause damage to the
module’s receiver.

Use proper cleaning procedures to clean all fiber
connectors before every use. Neglecting this step or
using improper procedures can cause unreliable test
results and may permanently damage the
connectors. See Chapter 4.

Use a video probe to periodically inspect the
module’s optical connectors for scratches and other
damage.

To make sure your test results are as accurate as
possible, do the reference procedure frequently. See
“About the Reference for Fiber Tests” on page 103.

Use only high-quality test reference cords that
comply with the standards. See “About Test
Reference Cords and Mandrels” on page 105
