Procedure
Proceed as follows to check the mean launched power:
............................................................................................................................................................
1
Connect the optical power meter to one output port of the optical
circuit pack to be tested.
............................................................................................................................................................
2
Measure the mean launched power at the connected port.
Important! The optical power meter must be set to the appropriate
wavelength range (see
“Value and wavelength ranges” (7-10)
). The
supported max. optical power limit of the optical power meter must
be greater than the maximum mean launched power of the measured
optical circuit pack to avoid damage.
............................................................................................................................................................
3
Check that the measured value is within the range shown below.
............................................................................................................................................................
4
Repeat the measurement for all optical ports.
Value and wavelength ranges
The following table provides the mean launched power value and
wavelength ranges of the optical circuit packs.
