Fiber-optic transmission units
CLASS 1 LASER PRODUCT
LASER KLASSE 1 PRODUKT
Laser safety statement (Europe)
Fiber-optic transmission units are classified as a “CLASS 1 Laser Product” according to EN 60825-1, Safety of Laser products. Class 1 laser products are considered safe and do not result in biological hazard if used according to the instructions.
Laser safety statement (US)
Fiber-optic transmission units are classified as a “CLASS 1 Laser Product” according to 21CFR 1040.10 of the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Center for Devices and Radiological Health.
Use of controls, adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure.
To ensure proper use of this product, please read this instruction manual carefully and retain for future reference. Should the unit ever require maintenance, contact an authorized service location.
Fiber-optic cable precautions
Fiber-optic cables and connectors are easily damaged; take the following percautions into account:
Do not bend the cable beyond the minimum permissible bend range
specified for the cable.
Avoid kinks in the cable.
Avoid subjecting the cable to a high tension force (even momentarily).
Do not twist the cable when connecting it to equipment.
Insert connectors straight and fully into their corresponding sockets.
In fiber-optic cable systems always put the dust caps on cable and panel
connectors immediately after disconnecting a cable. Keep the dust caps clean.

Cleaning fiber-optic connectors
Warning
Never clean an optical connector attached to a fiber that is carrying light.
Particles of foreign matter on the tip of a ferrule can have a disabling effect on fiber­optic transmission. Fiber-optic connectors need to be cleaned every time they are mated and unmated; it is essential that fiber-optic users develop the necessary discipline to always clean the connectors before they are mated.
Use a commerially available cleaning kit specifically designed for fiber-optic connectors and follow the manufacturer's instructions carefully.
The connector sections to be cleaned include the tips and sides of ferrules, the interior walls of alignment sleeves, and the interior and exterior of connector shells.
For plugs, the interior surfaces of alignment sleeves and the tips of ferrules are to be cleaned with a cleaning stick treated with the appropriate fluid. (Cleaning sticks with a slender design are available that allow alignment sleeves to be cleaned without having to detach them.)
For jacks, it is important to clean both the tips and sides of the completely protruding ferrules.
Both the male and female connector shells tend to attract dust and metal particles, so it is important to clean both the insides and outsides.
The fiber end face and ferrule must be absolutely clean before it is inserted into a transmitter or receiver.
Mate the connector immediately! Don't let the connector lie around and collect dust before mating.
Air can be used to remove lint or loose dust from the port of a transmitter or receiver to be mated with the connector. Never insert any liquid into the ports.

Earthing
This unit has a protective earth terminal (M5-screw) This terminal is internally connected to the protective earth conductor of the power cable.
The unit must be connect to earth either by using a earthed mains power cable OR by connecting a separate earth cable between the protective earth terminal and the building’s central earth.
Mains lead wiring for UK users
The wires in the mains lead are colored in accordance with the following code:
GREEN and YELLOW - EARTH,
BLUE - NEUTRAL,
BROWN - LIVE
As the colors of the wires in the mains lead of this apparatus may not correspond with the colored markings identifying the terminals in your plug proceed as follows:
The wire colored GREEN and YELLOW must be connected to the terminal on the plug marked with the letter E or by the safety earth symbol or colored GREEN or GREEN and YELLOW.
The wire colored BROWN must be connected to the terminal marked with the letter L or colored RED.
The wire colored BLUE must be connected to the terminal marked with the letter N or colored BLACK.
Ensure that your equipment is connected correctly - if you are in any doubt consult a qualified electrician.
