Safety Instructions

The following safety instructions must be observed whenever the unit is operated, serviced, or

contained in the user's manual is in direct violation of the standards of design, manufacture,
and intended use of the unit. JDS Uniphase assumes no liability for the customer's failure to
comply with any of these safety requirements.

Ensure that the unit and any devices or cords connected to it are properly grounded.

Operating the Unit

Warning
To avoid the risk of injury or death, always observe the following precautions
before initializing the unit:
•
If using a voltage-reducing autotransformer to power the unit, ensure that
the common terminal connects to the earthed pole of the power source.
•
Use only the type of power cord supplied with the unit.
•
Connect the power cord only to a power outlet equipped with a protective
earth contact. Never connect to an extension cord that is not equipped with
this feature.
•
Do not interrupt the protective earth grounding. Any such action can lead to
a potential shock hazard that can result in serious personal injury. If an
interruption to the protective grounding is suspected, ensure that the unit
remains inoperative
•
Never look into the end of an optical cable connected to an optical output
device that is operating. Laser radiation is invisible, and direct exposure can
severely injure the human eye. Depending on input power, output power of
TB9P can emit "class IV" laser light. For more information, see the user's
manual of the laser source in use.
•
Dirty fiber connector can be damaged under high power input. Always
make sure fiber connector is cleaned properly.
•
Turning off the power to the device does not always block the externally
supplied radiation to the connector at the output of the unit.
•
Do not use the unit outdoors.
•
To prevent potential fire or shock hazard, do not expose the unit to any
source of excessive moisture.
•
Do not operate the unit when its covers or panels have been removed.
