SAFETY: Equipment with Laser Devices
CAUTION: Do not look directly into a fiber-optic transceiver or into the end of a fiber-optic
cable. Fiber-optic transceivers contain laser light sources that can damage your eyes.
This equipment may contain optical communications transceivers which have built-in laser devices.
To prevent any risk of exposure to laser radiation, do not disassemble or open any optical transceiver
assembly for any reason.
Protecting Against Electrostatic Discharge
CAUTION: Disconnect product from mains power source in accordance with product-specific
safety information located in this manual.
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) events can harm electronic components. Under certain conditions, ESD may build up on your body or an object and
then discharge into another object, such as your add-in modules. To prevent ESD damage, you should discharge static electricity from your body
before handling add-in modules.
You can protect against ESD and discharge static electricity from your body by touching a metal grounded object before you interact with anything
electronic. When connecting other devices to this equipment, you should always ground both yourself and the other device before connecting it to
this
