agree  Tony M: Yes, plausible, though we don't have enough context to be sure this is what they are referring to; Asker will need to seek other clues in the wider text to be sure.

Testing of the inverter mode of operation was limited due to hardware issues with the optical trigger circuit and the IGBTs in the HV cabinet, which will now be discussed in detail.
:
A fiber optic network used to send triggering signals from the sensor feedback loop to the IGBTs in the high-voltage tank exhibited timing problems due to losses in the triggering signals. Significant signal loss (noise) was identified through the fiber optic lenses that relay optical signals at specific frequencies from the optical fiber to the control boards and vice versa.

agree  Tony M: There's no doubt that is one very common meaning; however, Asker's context is not enough to be 100% SURE this is what it means in the particular instance cited.

  -> I have no doubt, either. It's common to enter optical cables into L.V. cabinets.
