Optical safety
This optical equipment contains Class 1M lasers or LEDs and
has been designed and tested to meet IEC 60825-1:1993+A1+A2
and IEC 60825-2:2004 safety class 1M requirements.
Optical equipment presents potential hazards to testing and
servicing personnel owing to high levels of optical radiation.
When
using magnifying optical instruments, avoid looking directly into
the output of an operating transmitter or into the end of a fiber
connected to an operating transmitter, or there will be a risk of
permanent eye damage
.
Precautions should be taken to prevent
exposure to optical radiation when the unit is removed from its
enclosure or when the fiber is disconnected from the unit. The
optical radiation is invisible to the eye.
Use of controls or adjustments or procedures other than those
specified herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure.
The installer is responsible for ensuring that the label depicted
below (background: yellow; border and text: black) is present in
the restricted locations where this equipment is installed.
The locations of all optical connections are listed in the Indications
