Caution and warnings
Definitions Cautions indicate that there is the possibility of poor equipment performance or
damage to the equipment. The symbol below identifies cautions
Warnings indicate that there is the possibility of injury to person.
Cautions and Warnings appear here and may appear throughout this manual where
appropriate. Failure to read and understand the information identified by the symbol
could result in poor equipment performance, damage to the equipment, or injury to
persons.
Cautions When handling chassis Devices observe electrostatic discharge precautions.
This requires proper grounding; i.e., wear a wrist strap.
Copper based media ports, e.g., Twisted Pair (TP) Ethernet, USB, RS232,
RS422, RS485, DS1, DS3, Video Coax, etc., are intended to be connected to
intra-building (inside plant) link segments that are not subject to lightening
transients or power faults.
Copper based media ports, e.g., Twisted Pair (TP) Ethernet, USB, RS232,
RS422, RS485, DS1, DS3, Video Coax, etc., are NOT to be connected to
inter-building (outside plant) link segments that are subject to lightening.
DO NOT install the Devices in areas where strong electromagnetic fields
(EMF) exist. Failure to observe this caution could result in poor Device
performance.
Warnings Use of controls, adjustments or the performance of procedures other than
those specified herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure.
Visible and invisible laser radiation when open. DO NOT stare into the beam
or view the beam directly with optical instruments. Failure to observe this
warning could result in an eye injury or blindness.
