This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A computing
device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable
protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environ-
ment. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed
and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful
interference in which the user will be required to correct the interference at his own expense.
This digital apparatus does not exceed the Class A limits for radio noise emission from digital
apparatus set out in the Radio Interference Regulation of the Canadian Department of
Communications.
Le présent appareil numérique n’émet pas de bruits radioélectriques dépassant les limites applica-
bles aux appareils numériques de classe A prescrites dans le Règlement sur le brouillage radioélec-
trique publié par le ministère des Communications du Canada.

Fiber Optic transmitters and receivers are extremely susceptible to contamination by particles of
dirt or dust which can obstruct the optic path and cause performance degradation. Good system
performance requires clean optics and connector ferrules.
1) Use fiber patch cords (or connectors, if you terminate your own fiber) only from a reputable
supplier; low quality components can cause many hard-to-diagnose problems in an installa-
tion.
2) Dust caps are are installed at IMC Networks to ensure factory-clean optical devices. These
protective caps should not be removed until the moment of connecting the fiber cable to the
device. Assure that the fiber is properly terminated, polished and free of any dust or dirt and
that the location is as free from dust and dirt as possible.
3) Store spare caps in a dust-free environment such as a sealed plastic bag or box so that when
reinstalled they do not introduce any contamination to the optics.
4) Should it be necessary to disconnect the fiber device, reinstall the protective dust caps.
5) If you suspect that the optics have been contaminated, alternate between blasting with clean,
dry compressed air and flushing with methanol to remove particles of dirt.

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can cause damage to your add-in modules. Always observe the
following precautions when installing or handling an add-in module or any board assembly.
1) Do not remove unit from its protective packaging until you’re ready to install it.
2) Wear an ESD wrist grounding strap before handling any module or component. If you do
not have a wrist strap, maintain grounded contact with the system unit throughout any proce-
dure requiring ESD protection.
WARNING!
Integrated circuits and fiber optic components are extremely susceptible to
electrostatic discharge damage. Do not handle these components directly unless you are a
qualified service technician and use tools and techniques that conform to accepted industry
practices.
