CAUTION. To avoid damaging the optical input, to maintain the levels within
performance range, and to avoid clipping; attenuate optical signals to less than
that listed in Absolute maximum nondestructive optical input on page A --23 and
Maximum nonsaturating linear response to transient input on page A--23.

The optical input connector uses a universal connector interface (UCI) that
allows use of many standard fiber-optic female connector styles. Some of the
standard UCI interfaces supported are FC, ST, SC, and DIN. (Refer to a current
Tektronix catalog for details.)
Clock and data-recovery circuitry provides recovered clock and data outputs. The
signals are also available internally for use by the instrument. Circuitry also
provides electrical output from the O/E (optical-to-electrical) converter.
RECOVERED DATA. This output provides a 50 Ω, AC-coupled, ~ECL/2 level
signal from the optical data signal. This signal is digitally buffered and retimed
to be synchronous with the serial recovered clock.
RECOVERED CLOCK. This output is synchronous with the incoming data signal.
A sample of the input data is routed to the serial clock recovery circuit.
Recovered clock is available when using either optical or electrical signals.
NOTE. If no signal (or an inappropriate signal) is applied to the front panel, the
recovered clock and data will oscillate.
