Fiber-optic Safety

Warning – Possible Physical Injury.
Eye hazard. Never look directly into a fiber-optic cable, a fiber-optic connector, or
■
a laser transceiver module. Hazardous conditions might exist from laser power
levels that are capable of causing injury to your eyes.
Be especially careful when you use optical instruments with this equipment.
■
Such instruments might increase the likelihood of injury to your eyes.
Radiation exposure. Use of controls or adjustment or performance of procedures
■
