Page 16
Safety Information (continued) CAUTION ■ Do not touch the SFP-T,SFPP-ZR, or QSFP28 units when they are in motion, or immediately after they have been powered down. The ambient temperature during operation of SFP-T, SFPP-ZR, or QSFP28 models could should be no higher than 65C Do not touch the Unit while it is operating or immediately after it stops.
Page 17
Safety Information (continued) CAUTION ■ Avoid Laser Lights The Unit is a Class 1M laser product. The SFP, SFP+, QSFP+, and QSFP28 models have laser device internal components that emit laser light. Do not disassemble or alter these products. Also, avoid looking at the internal components or through the optical equipment.

A label attached to the transceiver or direct attach cable connector indicates that the transceiver or direct attach cable connector is a standard product from ALAXALA or another manufacturer. However, such labels are attached where they do not interfere with heat dissipation from the transceiver or from the direct attach cable connector or interfere with the mechanism that prevents the transceiver or the direct attach cable connector from coming loose from the cage.
Page 19
Safety Information (continued) NOTICE ■ Install a blank panel when disconnecting the electric power source Install a blank panel where there is no embedded power source slot. Using the unit without a blank panel may block air flow inside the Unit. Blocked air flow can cause the internal temperature of the Unit to rise.
Page 20
Safety Information (continued) NOTICE ■ Do not bring the Unit close to strong magnetism. Do not place the Unit near items emitting strong magnetism such as magnets, speakers, etc. This may cause malfunction. ■ Do not use a TV or a radio near the Unit. Placing the Unit near a TV or a radio could affect both devices.
Page 21
Safety Information (continued) NOTICE ■ Maintenance Clean any dirty areas on the exterior of the Unit with a clean, dry cloth, or a cloth damp with (but not soaked with) water or a neutral detergent. Do not use volatile organic solutions (such as benzene or paint thinner), chemicals, chemically treated cloths, or pesticides because these substances might deform, discolor, or damage the Unit.
