General

Output Fiber Connector: FC/PC or FC/APCe, 2.2 mm Wide-Key Slot

Operating Temperature: 15 to 35 °C

Storage Temperature: 0 to 50 °C

Input Power: 85 - 264 VAC; 50 - 60 Hz

USB Connector(c): Type B

(a) While Laser is Enabled

(b) Modulation Input voltage directly corresponds to output power, where 5 V = Max Power and 0 V = 0 mW when the front panel knob is set to 0 mW. The maximum voltage will be less than 5 V when using the default laser adjustment range (Laser Threshold to Max).

(c) The maximum USB and BNC cable length is 3 meters in order to avoid a susceptibility to RF interference according to IEC61000-4-3.

(d) Waveforms other than sine waves contain components with higher frequency than the overall frequency of the waveform, which may not be followed.

(e) Only the S6FC2000 is offered with an FC/APC connector.
