P6701B, P6703B & P6723 Instructions 15
Handling
Even though the fiber-optic cable of the P6701B, P6703B, or P6723
O/E Converter is protected by a jacket and strain relief, the
fiber-optic cable should be handled carefully at all times.
CAUTION. To avoid damaging the P6701B, P6703B, and P6723 O/E
Converters, take the following precautions:
Do not crush, crimp, or sharply bend the fiber optic cable.
Do not pull or yank the fiber-optic cable.
Do not drop the converter assembly since damage and misalignment
of the photodiode optical assembly can result. Store the converter in
a secure location when not in use.
Replace the protective cap on the connector when the converter is
not in use.
Optical Input
The P6701B, P6703B, and P6723 O/E Converters can be connected
to optical fibers with a core diameter of up to 62.5
m
m through one
of the FC, ST, SC, or DIN adapters. Adapter cables that aid in
connecting many other popular optical connectors are also available.
(Refer to Optional Accessories on page 9.)
CAUTION.
To maintain the high performance (low return loss) of the
O/E converter, connect an adapter and cable between the input of
the O/E converter and the device under test. When you make
connections to other devices, leave the adapter and cable in place to
protect the optical connector of the O/E converter from wear.
If you connect fiber cores larger than 62.5
m
m, the O/E converters
may still couple light, but the mismatch in core diameter will cause
lower conversion gain and high insertion loss.
