USER MANUAL | SEPTEMBER 9, 2008
Laser Safety
Class 1 Device
This equipment is inherently classified as a Class I laser product, since the equipment contains no laser or
light emitting diode (LED) of a higher class number.
 Although unit is classified as a Class 1 device, a hazard can exist due to laser radiation emitting from
the output port of the optical switch, and thus eye safety precautions should be adhered to at all times.
Never look into an uncovered optical bulkhead connector or the end of an optical cable connected to
an optical output device that is operating. Laser radiation is invisible, and direct exposure can severely
injure the human eye. For more information, see the User’s Manual of the laser source in use.
 Turning off the power to the optical switch does not block the externally supplied radiation to the input
of the optical switch, or the output of the optical switch.
Information contained herein is deemed to be reliable and accurate as of issue date. EMCORE
