WARNING!
Laser optic modules become very hot after prolonged use. Take care when removing a laser optic module from the
chassis or option card. If the laser optic module is too hot to touch, disengage the laser optic module and allow it to
cool before removing it completely.
WARNING!
When working with laser optic modules, always take the following precautions to avoid exposure to hazardous
radiation.
● Never look at the transmit LED/laser through a magnifying device while it is powered on.
● Never look directly at a fiber port on the switch or at the ends of a fiber cable when they are powered on.
● Invisible laser radiation can occur when the connectors are open. Avoid direct eye exposure to the beam
when optical connections are unplugged.
● Never alter, modify, or change an optical device in any way other than suggested in this document.
