INSTALLING OR OPERATING THESE MODULES.

The Class 1 laser transceivers use an optical feedback loop to maintain Class 1 operation limits. This control loo p elimina te s the need for main ten ance check s or adjust men ts. The out p ut is fac to ry set , and does not allow any user adjustment. Class 1 laser transceivers comply with the following safety standards:

• 21 CFR 1040.10 and 1040.11 U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (FDA).

• IEC Publicatio n 825 (Interna tio nal Electrote c hnica l Co mmi ssion ).

• CENELEC EN 60825 (European Co mmittee for Electrotechnical Standardization). When operating within their performance limitations, laser transceiver output meets the Class 1

accessible emiss ion limit of all three standard s . Class 1 levels of laser radiation are not considered hazardous.

SAFETY INFORMATION

CLASS 1 LASER TRANSCEIVERS

LASER RADIATION AND CONNECTORS

When the connector is in place, all las er radiation remains w ithin the fiber. The maximum amount of radiant power exit ing the fib er (under normal condition s ) i s -1 2.6 dBm or 55 x 10

Removing the optical connector from the transceiver allows laser radiation to emit directly from the optical port. The maximum radiance from the optical port (under worst case conditions) is

0.8 W cm

Do not use optical instruments to vie w th e laser output. The use of optical instruments to view laser output increases eye hazard. When viewing the output optica l port, power must be removed from the network adapter.

Safety

CAUTI ON An odd number of crossovers (preferably one)

must be maintained bet ween devices so that the transmit port of one de vice is connected t o the receive port of the other device and vice versa. If the fiber optic cable being used has SC style connectors that do not resemble MIC style connectors, or has SC connectors on one end and a differ ent type on the other, such as ST connectors, ensure that the proper crossing over occurs.

ACHTUNG Eine ungerade Zahl von Überkr euzu ngsstel len

(vorzugsweise eine) muß zwischen den Geräten beibehalt en werden, damit der Übertragungsanschluß eines Gerätes mit dem Empfangsanschluß des anderen Gerätes verbunden werden kann (und umgekehrt). Wenn das verwendete Glasfaserkabel SC-Anschlußstecker hat, die nicht MIC-Anschlußsteckern ähnlich sind, oder wenn es an einem Ende SC-Anschlußstecker hat und am anderen Ende einen anderen Steckertyp (z.B. einen ST-Stecker), vergewissern Sie sich, daß die richtig Überkreuzung stattfindet.

ATTENTION Un nombre impair de diagonal es (de

préférence une) doit être conservé entre les périphériques de sorte que le port de transmission d'un périphérique soit connecté au port de réception de l' autre périphériqu e et inversement. Si le cable de fibre optique utilisé est doté de connecteurs de type SC qui ne ressemblent pas aux connecteurs de type MIC ou a des connecteurs de type SC à une ext rémité et un type de connecteur différent à l' autre extrémité (comme par ex em ple des connect eurs de type ST), assurez-vou s que le croisement en diagonale se fait correctement.

Safety Requirements

PRECAUCIÓN Un número impar de diagonale s (de

preferencia uno ) se debe mantener entre los dispositivos para que el puerto de transmi sión de un dispositivo esté conectado al puerto de recepción del otro dispositivo y viceversa. Si el cable de fibra óptica que se está utilizando tiene conectores de tipo SC que no se parezcan a conectores de estilo MIC, o tenga conectores SC en un ext remo y un ti po diferente en el otro, com o conectores ST, asegúrese de que se realice el cruce adecuado.

CAUTI ON Do not touch the ends of the fiber optic

strands, and do not let the ends come in contact with dust, di rt, or other contaminants. Contamination of the ends caus es problems in data transmissions. If the ends become contaminated, b low t he surfaces with a canned duster. A fiber port cleaning swab saturated with optical-grade isopropyl alcohol may also be used to clean the ends.

ACHTUNG Das Ende an beiden Seiten des

Glasfaserkabel s darf nicht berührt werden oder mit Staub, Schmutz und anderen Stoffen in Berührung kommen, die zur Verunreinigung führen und Datenübertragungsprobleme verursachen könnten. In einem solchen Fall müssen die Enden mit einem eigens dazu bestimmten Staubreiniger (z.B. einem speziellen Staubspray oder einem in Isopropylalkohol getauchten Wattestäbchen) sorgf äl tig ge r e in ig t w e rd e n.

ATTENTION Ne touchez pas les extré mités des fibres

optiques et évitez qu' elles viennent en contact avec des éléments poussiéreux, sales ou tout autre contaminant . La contamination de ces extrémités cause des problèmes lors de la transmission des données. Si ces extrémités sont contaminées, nettoyez leur surface à l'aide d'un nett oyant adéquat. V ous pouvez également utiliser une éponge imbibée d'isopropanol pour les nettoyer.
