To determine which classification applies to your product, examine all labels on your product. After you have 
determined your system’s classification, read the appropriate notices below. Note that regulations provide 
that changes or modifications not expressly approved by Quantum could void your authority to operate this 
equipment.

connectors are required, as well as SFPs or GBICs that do not violate the electromagnetic compatibility 
requirements for this product. Removal of any cover, or any other unauthorized changes or 
modifications, may compromise electromagnetic compatibility. Quantum is not responsible for 
interference caused by the use of non-conforming cables, connectors, SFPs or GBICs, or by
