WARNING: This unit outputs continuous invisible light, which
may be harmful to the eyes; use with caution. For additional
safety, plug the attached dust caps into the optical transceivers
when the fiber cable is unplugged.
AVERTISSEMENT : L'appareil émet une lumière invisible en
continu, à utiliser avec precaution. Branchez les protections
contre la poussière dans l'ensemble émetteur/récepteur lorsque
le câble fibre optique est débranché.
NOTES:
• Ensure that you use the proper fiber cable for your I/O
board. Typically, singlemode fiber has a yellow jacket and
multimode cable has an orange or cyan jacket.

connector on the block as an input
and the second connector on the
same block as a separate output.
