Checking additional test cable
(dotted line)
The additional test cable is
used to connect the optical
power meter to the link
under test, but is not used
for setting a reference.
Therefore, this test cable
should be checked prior to
testing to ensure it does
not introduce excessive
loss into the final optical
loss measurement.
Using your test reference
cables, please connect the meter
and source as shown and
press any key to proceed.
