Appendix E Safety and Regulatory Compliance
Information
The fiber is made of a very pure, expensive glass and should be treated with great care.
q
Handle fibers only in areas that are very clean and do not contain sharp objects.
Wear finger cots or gloves as dirt and oils can damage the fiber and contaminate
q
connectors.
Do not allow kinks or knots to develop in the fiber. If tangles occur, carefully work out the
q
tangles avoiding pulling or bending the fibre beyond its bend radius.
Always use the correct tools for stripping and cleaving the fiber. It will save time and
q
reduce breakage caused by scratches.
If you must secure a bundle of fiber cables together, avoid plastic and metal tie wraps;
q
secure with velcro instead.
6. Disposing of the Unit
Dispose of the unit and its components (including batteries) as specified by all national
q
laws and regulations.
