Laser Radiation and Connectors
Whentheconnectorisinplace,alllaserradiationremainswithinthefiber.The
maximumamountofradiantpowerexitingthefiber(undernormalconditions)is

Removingtheopticalconnectorfromthetransceiverallowslaserradiationtoemit
directlyfromtheopticalport.Themaximumradiancefromtheopticalport(under
