Laser Safety Notice
This laser safety information contains ce rtificati on and p rodu ct in forma tion c overing las er produc ts
known as optical small form fact or trans ceiver s in corpor ated i n Emul ex L ightPulse host adapters. The
small form factor transceiver is the primary cable connection mechanism for any optical port on the host
adapter. This data is not intended to be a replacement for any safety regulations and standards; relevant
safety documents should always be consul ted if necess ar y. Contact Emulex Corporation with any
questions or concerns about laser safety.
Certification and Classification
The LPe11000, LPe11002 and LPe1150 host adapters may contain a laser product known as a small
form factor transceiver. This transceiver provides the physical connec tion to the optic al cable, an d its
LC-style connector extends through the mounting bracket. In turn, the host adapter can be inserted into
any host system's appropriate PCI/PCI-X expansion slot.
In the United States, all optical small form factor transceivers sold by Emulex are ce rtifi ed as Class 1
laser products that conform to the requirements contained in the Department of Heal th and Huma n
Services (DHHS) regulation 21 CFR subchapter J. The certification is indicated by a label located on the
optical small form factor transceiver.
In Europe, all optical small form factor tr anscei vers s old b y Em ulex are certified as Class 1 laser
component assemblies that conform to the requi rements contained in the CE NELE C (Europ ean
Committee for Electrotechnical Standardization) standard EN60825-1:1994 (including amendment 11)
and EN60825-2:1994. Small form factor transc eiv ers ar e certifi ed by a recogni zed E uro pean test ing
agency and have appropriate markings on the assembly. The DHHS conformity label and European
conformity mark will not be visible exter nall y once the opti cal small form factor transceiver is connected
to or inserted in the host adapter and the adapter is installed into a system.
Labeling Requirements
No caution or danger labels are required for use of the small form factor transceiver since they are Class
1 laser component assembly. In the U.S., the only laser safety label required is the DHHS certification
label that already appears on the small form factor tr ansceiv er. In Europe, the EN60825-1/EN60825-2
standards require that the system-level product has a Class 1 in forma tion l abel pe rman ently attached
and clearly visible whenever access to the GLM, GBIC, 1x9 and small form factor transceiver optical port
is possible. Each Class 1 product sh all have affixed an explanatory label bearing the word s:
LPe1150 Hardware Installation Manual Page 11
Alternatively, at the discretion of the manufacturer, the same statement may be included in user
information. If a label is used, an example of the IEC Cl ass 1 infor mati on labe l that i s su itable for most
European countries is shown below. The label consists of black printing on a white backgro und.
Languages represented on this label are En glis h, Germ an, F innish and Frenc h, and they represent the
minimum set for acceptance of a Class 1 product in most E uropean c ountr ies.
Product Information
Small Form Factor Transceiver
The small form factor transceiver is an integrated duplex data link for bi-directional communications over
multimode or single mode optical fiber. Each small form factor transceiver cons is ts of a transmitter and
receiver optical subassembly. The transmitter subassembly contains a semicon ductor las er emitti ng in
the wavelength range of 770 to 860 nanometers for shortwave length small form factor transceivers and
1270 to 1355 nanometers for long wavelength small form factor tran sc eivers . For non -OFC link s, the
optical power from the laser transmitter is c ontrolled and maintained at a lower power level. The power
emitted from either an open fiber or open laser transmi tter is gua rante ed to be below the Cla ss 1 lim it.
Class 1 laser products are not considered haza rdou s. No us er mainten ance, s er vice oper atio ns or
adjustments can be performed the small form factor tran sc eiver.
Usage Restrictions
Failure to comply with these usage restrictions may result in incorrect operation of the system and could
possible lead to points of access that may emit laser radiation levels above the Class 1 limits established
in the U. S. by the DHHS and within Europe by EN60825-1/EN60825-2.
Short wavelength and long wavelength small form factor transceivers allow normal data transmission on
the optical link when they are connected to another compatible laser product. Short wavelength and long
wavelength small form factor transceiv ers embe dded in Emul ex ho st adap ter are non -O FC. For nonOFC links, a compatible laser device mu st be no n-OF C and ce rtified as a Clas s 1 l aser pr oduc t.
Any system level product that incorporates the small form factor transceivers must provide power supply
protection that guarantees a voltage of 5.0 volts or less at the smal l form factor transceivers. The
functional power supply range of the small for m fac tor trans cei vers produc t is spec ified as 3.135 to
3.465V typically. Operation outside of this range may degrade the performance and lifetime of the
transceiver. The transceiver will remain operational with laser emis si ons b elow Cla ss 1 lim its provi ded
the power supply level at the adapter remains at or below 5.0 volts. If the power supply level rises above
5.0 volts, the small form factor transceiver cannot be guaranteed to operate correctly and could result in
laser emissions that m a y exceed Class 1 limits.
System Level Certification
All host adapters containing embedded small form factor tra nsc eivers are cer tifi ed as Cl ass 1 las er
products within the U.S. and Class 1 laser com ponent as sem blie s outside of th e U.S. Manu facturer s of
products properly incorporating the small form factor transceiver do not need to recertify their product for
laser safety. The procedure for full system certification is therefore identical to that used for any o ther
electronic system. When applying for sy stem l evel cert ificati on to ele ctronic standards such as IEC950,
the regulatory engineers may want to see the DHHS and European conformity labeling on the small form
LPe1150 Hardware Installation Manual Page 12
factor transceiver, and the system level documentation and labeling. Copies of the cer tific ate of
conformity for any small form factor trans cei ver sol d by E mulex c an be obtained upo n req uest from
Emulex Corporation, Costa Mesa.
