These are well supported by the 1x13 switch configuration and the 13th
path can often be used as a permanent reference path.
Signals in multimode fibers are distributed over a range of mode groups
that can have different loss and delay in a link. For dependable
multimode transceiver testing, the instrument used to set the power
level should not change this modal distribution. The Keysight
multimode switches are designed with very short collimated paths
between fiber, so signals propagate in practically the same distribution
as through uninterrupted multimode fiber.
Initial Inspection
Inspect the shipping container for damage. If there is damage to the
container or cushioning, keep them until you have checked the contents
of the shipment for completeness and verified the instrument both
mechanically and electrically. The Function Tests give a procedure for
checking the operation of the instrument. If the contents are incomplete,
mechanical damage or defect is apparent, or if an instrument does not
pass the operator’s checks, notify the nearest Keysight Technologies
Sales/Service Office.
N O T E
To avoid hazardous electrical shock, do not perform electrical tests when there are
signs of shipping damage to any portion of the outer enclosure (covers, panels, and
so on).
Claims and Repackaging
If physical damage is evident or if the instrument does not meet
specification when received, notify the carrier and the nearest
Keysight Technologies Sales/Service Office. The Keysight Technologies
Sales/Service Office will arrange for repair or replacement of the unit
without
waiting for settlement of the claim against the carrier.
