SAFETY WARNINGS

LASER RADIATION

The optical fiber jumper attached to the OTOHP-FRX receiver carries invisible radiation that can
cause permanent eye damage.

. Operate the receiver

only with the proper optical fiber installed in the receiver optical connector. Power to the receiver
should be turned-off or preferably, disconnected whenever the optical connector cover is opened
and there is no installed fiber (as when the fiber connector is being installed or removed from the
transmitter connector).

AVOID DIRECT EXPOSURE TO BEAM

NEVER

USE ANY OPTICAL INSTRUMENT TO VIEW THE OUTPUT OF THE OPTICAL FIBER

OR CONNECTOR “OPTICAL INSTRUMENT” INCLUDES MAGNIFYING GLASSES, ETC.

LOOK INTO THE OUTPUT OF THE CONNECTOR TO BE ATTACHED TO THE

RECEIVER

LOOK INTO THE OUTPUT OF A FIBER CONNECTED TO A LASER

TRANSMITTER.

LOOK INTO OR USE ANY OPTICAL INSTRUMENT TO VIEW THE DISTANT END

OF A FIBER THAT MAY BE CONNECTED DIRECTLY OR VIA AN OPTICAL SPLIT, TO A
TRANSMITTER THAT MAY BE OPERATING. THIS SPECIFICALLY APPLIES TO FIBERS
THAT ARE TO BE CONNECTED TO RECEIVERS OR OTHER DEVICES AT ANY
DISTANCE FROM THE LASER TRANSMITTER.
