Laser Compliance Statements

The Origin 350 server system product is FCC compliant under test conditions that
include the use of shielded cables between the server and its peripherals. Your server and
any peripherals that you purchase from SGI have shielded cables. Shielded cables reduce
the possibility of interference with radio, television, and other devices. If you use any
cables that are not from SGI, ensure that they are shielded. Telephone cables do not
require shielding.
Optional monitor cables supplied with your server system use additional filtering
molded into the cable jacket to reduce radio frequency interference. Always use the cable
that is supplied with your system. If your monitor cable becomes damaged, obtain a
replacement cable from SGI.
SGI designs and tests its products to be resistant to the effects of electrostatic discharge
(ESD). ESD is a source of electromagnetic interference and can cause problems ranging
from data errors and lockups to permanent component damage.
It is important that you keep all the covers and doors, including the plastics, in place
while you are operating the server system. The shielded cables that came with the server
and its peripherals should be installed correctly, with all thumbscrews fastened securely.
An ESD wrist strap may be included with some products, such as memory or PCI
upgrades. Use the wrist strap when you install these upgrades to prevent the flow of
static electricity; it is designed to protect your system from ESD damage.
The DVD-ROM drive in this computer is a Class 1 laser product. The DVD-ROM
drive-classification label is located on the drive.
Warning:
Invisible laser radiation when open. Avoid exposure to beam.
