1  GENERAL SAFETY INFORMATION 

  

The information that follows, together with local site regulations, must be studied by 
personnel concerned with the operation or maintenance of the equipment, to ensure 
awareness of potential hazards.

 

 

WARNING- RF Power Hazard : 

High levels of RF power are present in the unit. Exposure 

to RF or microwave power can cause burns and may be harmful to health. 

Switch off

 supplies before removing covers or disconnecting any RF cables, and before 

inspecting damaged cables or antennas.  
  
Avoid standing in front of high gain antennas (such as a dish) and never look into the open 
end of a waveguide or cable where RF power may be present. 
  
Users are strongly recommended to return any equipment that requires RF servicing to 
Gigawave. 
  

WARNING- GaAs / BeO Hazard :

 Certain components  inside the equipment contain 

Gallium Arsenide and Beryllium Oxide that are 

toxic substances.

 Whilst safe to handle 

under normal circumstances, individual components 

must not

 be cut, broken apart, 

incinerated or chemically processed. In the case of Beryllium Oxide, a white ceramic 
material, the principal hazard is from the dust or fumes, which are carcinogenic if ingested, 
inhaled or entering damaged skin.  
  
Please consult your local authority before disposing of these components. 
  

CAUTION- Tantalum Capacitors:

 When subjected to reverse or excess forward voltage, 

ripple current or temperature these components may rupture and could potentially cause 
personal injury.  
  

CAUTION: 

This system contains MOS devices. Electro-Static Discharge (ESD) 

precautions should be employed to prevent accidental damage. 
  
 
 
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules.  Operation is subject to the following 
two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device 
must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired 
operation. 
 

FCC Part 15.21

 

Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance 
could void the user's authority to operate the equipment. 
 

NOTE:

   The manufacturer is not responsible for any radio or TV interference caused by 

unauthorized modifications to this equipment.  Such modifications could void the user's 
authority to operate the equipment.
