Cautions and Warnings
Definitions
Cautions
indicate that there is the possibility of poor equipment performance or potential damage to the
equipment.
Warnings
indicate that there is the possibility of injury to person.
Cautions and Warnings appear here and may appear throughout this manual where appropriate. Failure to read
and understand the information identified by this symbol could result in poor equipment performance, damage
to the equipment, or injury to persons.
Cautions
Caution
:
Do not
ship or store devices near strong electrostatic, electromagnetic, magnetic, or radioactive fields.
Caution
: When handling chassis Devices (NIDs) observe electrostatic discharge precautions. This requires proper grounding
(i.e., wear a wrist strap).
Caution
: Copper based media ports, e.g., Twisted Pair (TP) Ethernet, USB, RS232, RS422, RS485, DS1, DS3, Video Coax, etc.,
are intended to be connected to intra-building
(inside plant)
link segments that are not subject to lightening transients or
power faults. They are
not
to be connected to inter-building
(outside plant)
link segments that are subject to lightening.
Caution
:
Do not
install the NIDs in areas where strong electromagnetic fields (EMF) exist. Failure to observe this caution
could result in poor NID performance.
Caution
: Read the installation instructions before connecting the chassis to a power source. Failure to observe this caution
could result in poor performance or damage to the equipment.
Caution
: Only trained and qualified personnel should install or perform maintenance on the device. Failure to observe this
caution could result in poor performance or damage to the equipment.
Caution
: Do not let optical fibers come into physical contact with any bare part of the body since they are fragile, and
difficult to detect and remove from the body.
Caution
: Do not bend any part of an optical fiber/cable to a diameter that is smaller than the minimum permitted according
to the manufacturer’s specification (usually about 65 mm or 2.5 in)!
