seriously damage

the retina of the eye. Do not look into the ends of any optical fiber. Do

not look directly into the

optical transceiver of any digital unit or exposure to laser

radiation may result. An optical power

meter should be used to verify active fibers. A

protective cap or hood MUST be immediately placed ove

r any radiating transceiver or

optical fiber connector to avoid the potential of dangerous amounts of

radiation

exposure. This practice also prevents dirt particles from entering the adapter or

connecto

This system is an RF Transmitter and continuously emits RF energy. Maintain 3 foot
