IBM Tape Drives
A Class 1 laser assembly, in the optical transceiver, is mounted on each IBM
tape drive Fibre Channel electronics card. This laser assembly is registered
with the DHHS and is in compliance with IEC825.
These products contain components that comply with performance
standards that are set by the U.S. Food and Drug administration. This
means that these products belong to a class of laser products that do not
emit hazardous laser radiation. This classification was accomplished by
providing the necessary protective housings and scanning safeguards to
ensure that laser radiation is inaccessible during operation or is within
Class 1 limits. External safety agencies have reviewed these products and
have obtained approvals to the latest standards as they apply to this
product type.
Spectra Logic RIM Controllers
The optical transceiver is a Class 1 Laser Product as defined by the
international standard IEC 60825‐1:1993+A1:1997+A2:2001 and by USA
regulations for Class 1 products per CDRH 21 CFR 1040.10 and 1040.11.
Laser emissions from Class 1 laser products are not considered hazardous
when operated according to product specifications. Operating the product
with a power supply voltage exceeding 4.0 volts may compromise the
reliability of the product, and could result in laser emissions exceeding
Class 1 limits.
