Operating Basics
This section presents the basic information necessary you need to
know to operate the P6701B, P6703B, and P6723 O/E Converters.
Operating Safety
WARNING. To avoid eye injury, wear eye protection if risk of
exposure to high-intensity rays or laser radiation exists.
Cleaning
Small dust particles and oils can easily contaminate fiber-optic
connectors and reduce or block the signal. Take care to preserve the
integrity of your connectors by keeping them free of contamination.
CAUTION.
To prevent loss of optical power or damage to the
fiber-optic connectors, keep the connectors clean at all times.
When cleaning the connectors with a swab, use gentle circular
motions. Use only high quality cleaning supplies that are non-abra-
sive and leave no residue.
To reduce the need for cleaning, immediately replace protective caps
on the fiber-optic connectors when not in use.
