Input Power Limitations
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 Performance Tests give procedures 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 Agilent Technologies Sales/Service Office.
Line Power Requirements
The Agilent 81618A and Agilent 81619A Optical Head Interface Modules
operate when installed in the Agilent 8163A Lightwave Multimeter,
Agilent 8164A Lightwave Measurement System, and Agilent 8166A
Lightwave Multichannel System.
Applicable to Agilent 81628B only -
Operation above 34 dBm (2.51 W) is at your own risk.
Operation at a continuous optical power, or an average optical
power, greater than 34 dBm causes, in the specified operating
temperature range, the metal parts (connector adapters, screws)
to become hotter than the required limit (55°C) of the safety
standard IEC 61010-1.
Agilent Technologies Deutschland GmbH will not be liable for any
damage caused by operation above 34 dBm.
CAUTIONWARNING
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, etc.).
