CAUTION: The transmitting segment in some versions of the transmitter
(AC300A-TX-R2) is a solid-state laser diode located in the optical
connector on the unit. This device emits invisible infrared electromag-
netic radiation that might be harmful to human eyes. The radiation
from the optical connector, if viewed at close range without a fiber
optic cable connected to the optical connector, might cause instanta-
neous damage to the retina of the eye. Do not look directly into the
laser.
