Warning
Danger of eye damage from invisible laser radiation produced by the System
Module optical fibre connector!
Always switch off the laser before detaching the optical fibre from the connector.
Caution
Incorrect cables and seals may not provide secured environmental protection. Use
only tested IP65 class cables with seals provided by Nokia Siemens Networks. Store
all unused seals for later use.
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) may damage the modules. Wear an ESD wrist strap or
use a corresponding method when handling the modules.
The rear stopper is fragile. Do not attempt to lift the plinth using the rear stopper.
If water leaks into the outdoor mechanics, the transmission equipment may fail. To help
prevent water leakage, feed the cables through the bottom cable entries in wall and
pole mounting, and through the bottom cable entry holes in stack installation.
Risk of damage to equipment. If modules are exposed to weather conditions, connector
seals or boots must be installed at all times, whether the site is active or not.
