1.5General Safety
1.5.1Cautions and Warnings
Disconnect all power from electronic devices before servicing. Some equipment may have multiple power cords requiring disconnection.
1.5.2 Laser Safety
WARNING: Fiber optic equipment may emit laser or infrared light that can injure your eyes. Never look into an optical fiber or connector port. Always assume that fiber optic cables are connected to a laser light source.
CAUTION: Do not install or terminate fibers when a laser may be active.
WARNING: Never look directly into a live optical fiber. Always wear appropriate laser safety glasses when working with open fiber cables that might be connected to an operational laser transmitter. Direct open fibers ends away from faces.
CAUTION: Use of controls or adjustments or performing procedures other than those specified herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure.
If a fiber optic laser device output is recognized as a higher than Class 1 product (Class 1M, for example), the device is evaluated, labeled, and certified by TUV. Class 1 and 1M outputs are not considered hazardous, but laser safety practices should always be observed.
Afiber optic transceiver emits either
•Wear safety glasses when you install optical fibers.
•Be aware of the risk of laser radiation exposure.
•Always assume that fiber optic cables are active because transmitted light is invisible to the human eye.
•Never look directly into a beam (TX part of a transmitter) or open fiber ends. The invisible light can damage your eyes.
•Place optical fibers in a safe location during installation.
•Protect optical fiber connectors with clean dust caps for safety and sanitation.
•Follow the manufacturer instructions when using optical test equipment.
