1.3 Laser
When installing and maintaining the equipment, follow the safety regulations of laser to ensure
the safety of the human body and the equipment.
Laser safety regulations include two aspects:
l
Personal injury
l
Equipment damage
Personal Injury
WARNING
The laser beam emitted from the optical interface is invisible infrared light, which may cause
permanent eye injury. During maintenance, do not stare at the optical interface.
Equipment Damage
To prevent equipment damage when you handle the equipment, pay attention to the following:
l
Use protective caps to cover optical interfaces and optical connectors that are not in use.
l
After you remove a fiber jumper from an optical interface, use protective caps to cover the
optical interface and the fiber jumper connector.
l
Use an attenuator to prevent high optical power from damaging the optical receiver while
using a fiber jumper for the hardware loopback on an optical interface.
l
Before using an optical time domain reflectometer (OTDR), remove the fiber jumper
between the opposite site and the optical interface module. Such a measure also prevents
high optical power from damaging the optical receiver.
l
Do not insert or remove a module that is connected with a fiber.
1.4 Miscellaneous
When installing and maintaining the equipment, follow the safety regulations of heavy objects,
sharp objects, installing and removing modules to ensure the safety of the human body and the
equipment.
Heavy Objects
WARNING
Do not stand or walk under heavy objects when they are being lifted.
