Handling and Safety
The adapter card contains sensitive electronic components that are susceptible to Electro-Static Discharge (ESD) and
must be handled with care. The following steps can be taken to ensure proper operation of the product:
❑When transporting the product, it should be kept in an anti-static bag to protect against ESD.
❑When inserting or removing the product from the system chassis, the operator should be properly grounded.
❑Devices on the product can generate high temperatures during normal operation. Use caution when handling
the product.
❑For the QLE3142-SR-CK and QLE3142-LR-CK optical products:
❑Use the dust plugs (provided) to keep the high speed optical fiber connectors free from dust and debris
when not in use.
❑Do not use excessive force when connecting or disconnecting the fiber optic cable.
❑When routing the fiber optic cable in the system, never exceed a minimum bend radius of 3”.
WARNING!!Note that the light emitted by the optical laser is outside the visible spectrum. Looking directly into either
