Safety Information

WWarning: Class 1 Laser*

To avoid possible eye damage caused by hazardous

radiation:

•

Never look directly into optical connectors. Some

sources produce invisible radiation that can

permanently damage your eyes.

•

Never turn on the source unless a fiber is

attached to the port.

•

Do not use magnification to view the optical

outputs without proper filtering.

•

Use of controls, adjustments, or procedures not

stated herein might result in hazardous radiation

exposure.

WCaution

To avoid damaging fiber connectors, to avoid data

loss, and to ensure maximum accuracy of test results:

•

Use proper cleaning procedures to clean all fiber

connectors before every use. Neglecting this step

or using improper procedures can cause

unreliable test results and may permanently

damage the connectors.

•

Cover all connectors with protective caps when

not in use.

•

Never connect the source to an active network.

Doing so can disrupt network operations.
