When not in use, disconnect the cord from the port, replace dust covers,

For patchcords with dark cabling or any outdoor cable or bend-insensitive
patchcords (armored cables), VFL will not work because there is no way
to bend fibers.
6.10 Optical Light Source (OLS)
The unit can be equipped with an optional Optical Light Source (OLS) to use in conjunction
with the OPM and test the entire fiber infrastructure. It identifies microbends, bad
splices/connectors, and fiber breaks through visible laser light leakage. Use the automated
feature to control both units at each end and test the fiber (multimode or singlemode) at
different wavelengths. The OLS radiates continuously or in pulses.

PROTECT YOUR EYES!
Never look directly into the OPL’s light. The laser radiation emitted will harm
your eyes.
