Integrated Qualification System 335
F Using the IQS-9600 Utility
Module
The IQS-9600 Utility Module provides a secure, standardized way of
integrating components such as couplers, isolators, filters, and Bragg
gratings into the IQS-600 Integrated Qualification System. Without such a
module, these passive optical elements would end up loose on your
workbench, which can cause damage or affect their adjustment.
The IQS-9600 Utility Module consists of an empty IQS module casing that
fits into your IQS-610P-HS controller unit or IQS-610E-HS expansion unit.
The IQS-9600 Utility Module is used to house non-electrical elements only
(no electrical connections are provided).
The IQS-9600 Utility Module comes in either single-slot (IQS-9601) or
dual-slot (IQS-9602) size. The amount of material supplied with the utility
module depends on the configuration, but it usually includes the following:

adhesive tape

tie wraps

splice holder

connectors
Use the exploded views presented in this section as a reference for
disassembling and reassembling the utility modules.
Note: The IQ-9600 Utility Module can also be used in your controller or expansion
units. Both types of modules are assembled and disassembled in the same
manner.
