General Laser Safety Guidelines

Do not use multipurpose Type ABC chemical fire extinguishers (dry chemical fire
extinguishers). The primary ingredient in these fire extinguishers is monoammonium
phosphate, which is very sticky and difficult to clean. In addition, in the presence of minute
amounts of moisture, monoammonium phosphate can become highly corrosive and
corrodes most metals.
Any equipment in a room in which a chemical fire extinguisher has been discharged is
subject to premature failure and unreliable operation. The equipment is considered to
be irreparably damaged.
NOTE: To keep warranties effective, do not use a dry chemical fire extinguisher
to control a fire at or near a Juniper Networks device. If a dry chemical fire
extinguisher is used, the unit is no longer eligible for coverage under a service
agreement.
We recommend that you dispose of any irreparably damaged equipment in an
environmentally responsible manner.
Juniper Networks devices are equipped with laser transmitters, which are considered a
Class 1 Laser Product by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and are evaluated as a
Class 1 Laser Product per EN 60825-1 requirements.
Observe the following guidelines and warnings:

When working around ports that support optical transceivers, observe the following
safety guidelines to prevent eye injury:
Do not look into unterminated ports or at fibers that connect to unknown sources.
Do not examine unterminated optical ports with optical instruments.
Avoid direct exposure to the beam.
WARNING: Unterminated optical connectors can emit invisible laser
radiation. The lens in the human eye focuses all the laser power on the
retina, so focusing the eye directly on a laser source—even a low-power
laser—could permanently damage the eye.
