Fiber-optic Safety
WARNING:
Eye hazard. Never look directly into a fiber-optic cable, a fiber-optic
connector, or a laser transceiver module. Hazardous conditions might
exist from laser power levels that are capable of causing injury to the
eye.
Be especially careful when using optical instruments with this
equipment. Such instruments might increase the likelihood of eye injury.
The laser transceivers in fiber-optic equipment can pose dangers to personal safety.
Ensure that anyone who works with this StorageTek equipment understands these
dangers and follows safety procedures. Ensure that the optical ports of every laser
transceiver module are terminated with an optical connector, a dust plug, or a cover.
Each fiber-optic interface in this StorageTek Fibre Channel equipment contains a laser
transceiver that is a Class 1 Laser Product. Each laser transceiver has an output of less
than 70 µW and a wavelength of 850 nm. StorageTek’s Class 1 Laser Products comply
with EN60825-1(+A-11) and with sections 21 CFR 1040.10 and 1040.11 of the Food and
