Certification Information
North America Regulatory Statement on Product
Safety
This unit was certified by an agency approved in both Canada and the
United States of America. It has been evaluated according to applicable
North American approved standards for product safety for use in Canada
and the United States.
Electronic test and measurement equipment is exempt from FCC part 15,
subpart B compliance in the United States of America and from ICES-003
compliance in Canada. However, EXFO Inc. makes reasonable efforts to
ensure compliance to the applicable standards.
The limits set by these standards are designed to provide reasonable
protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in
a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can
radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance
with the user guide, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely
to cause harmful interference in which case the user will be required to
correct the interference at his own expense.
Modifications not expressly approved by the manufacturer could void the
user's authority to operate the equipment.

Optical Switch 1
1 Introducing the
IQS-9100/9100B Optical Switch
Main Features
The IQS-9100/9100B Optical Switch provides fiber-to-fiber positioning of
optical signals for a number of optical applications. This module, which
exists in various models depending on the number of optical ports and
configuration options it has, allows you to quickly switch light from one
fiber to another.
This optical switch can be controlled using applications available in the
IQS Manager software.
The applications can control one or more modules at a time and allow
for various configurations.
The configurations can be modified at any time and can be saved for
future use, allowing you to save time and be more efficient.
The IQS-9100/9100B Optical Switch supports local control (via the
IQS Manager software) and remote control (through GPIB, RS-232, or
Ethernet TCP/IP using SCPI commands or the provided LabVIEW drivers).
For more information, refer to the IQS platform user guide.
