Dark level and Extinction Ratio 2.1
The dark level of the O/E converter is measured and used to calculate the extinction ratio. To
measure the dark level, remove the POF-fibre from the O/E-converter. Shade the input of the O/E-
converter and press the “OK” button. Skipping the measurement of the dark level is allowed but will
result in a failure of the extinction ratio test.
