System
Damage
WARNING: The intra-building port(s) of the equipment or subassembly is suitable for
connection to intra-building or unexposed wiring or cabling only. The intra-building port(s) of
the equipment or subassembly MUST NOT be metallically connected to interfaces that
connect to the OSP or its wiring. These interfaces are designed for use as intra-building
interfaces only (Type 2 or Type 4 ports as described in GR-1089) and require isolation from the
exposed OSP cabling. The addition of Primary Protectors is not sufficient protection in order to
connect these interfaces metallically to OSP wiring.
Operation
Blade
Damage
Blade surface
High humidity and condensation on the blade surface causes short circuits.
Do not operate the blade outside the specified environmental limits. Make sure the blade is
completely dry and there is no moisture on any surface before applying power.
Blade Overheating and Blade Damage
Operating the blade without forced air cooling may lead to blade overheating and thus blade
damage.
When operating the blade, make sure that forced air cooling is available in the shelf.
When operating the blade in areas of electromagnetic radiation ensure that the blade is bolted
on the system and the system is shielded by enclosure.
Environment
Always dispose of used blades, system components and RTMs according to your country’s
legislation and manufacturer’s instructions.
