connected to transceivers emit laser light that can damage your eyes.

EX Series switches have field-replaceable unit (FRU) optical transceivers to which you
can connect fiber-optic cables.
Before you begin connecting a fiber-optic cable to an optical transceiver installed in an
EX Series switch, ensure that you have taken the necessary precautions for safe handling
of lasers (see "Laser and LED Safety Guidelines and Warnings for EX Series Switches"
on page 275).
