Maintaining Fiber-Optic Cables In A Ptx1000 - Juniper PTX1000 Hardware Manual

To connect a fiber-optic cable to an optical transceiver installed in the PTX1000:
WARNING:
fiber-optic cables. Fiber-optic transceivers and fiber-optic cables connected to
transceivers emit laser light that can damage your eyes.

CAUTION:
Bending the cables beyond their minimum bend radius can damage the cables and
cause problems that are difficult to diagnose.
CAUTION:
allow fastened loops of cables to dangle, which stresses the cables at the fastening
point.
