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
Do not
ship or store devices near strong electrostatic, electromagnetic, magnetic, or radioactive fields.
Caution
: When handling chassis devices 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 lightning transients or
power faults. They are
not
to be connected to inter-building
(outside plant)
link segments that are subject to lightning.
Caution
:
Do not
install the device in areas where strong electromagnetic fields (EMF) exist. Failure to observe this caution
could result in poor device 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)!
Warnings
Warning
: Use of controls, adjustments or the performance of procedures other than those specified herein may result in
hazardous radiation exposure.
Warning
: Visible and invisible laser radiation when open.
Do not
stare into the beam or view the beam directly with optical
instruments. Failure to observe this warning could result in an eye injury or blindness.
Warning
: DO NOT connect the power supply module to external power before installing it into the chassis. Failure to observe
this warning could result in an electrical shock or death.
Warning
: Select mounting bracket locations on the chassis that will keep the chassis balanced when mounted in the rack.
Failure to observe this warning could allow the chassis to fall, resulting in equipment damage and/or possible injury to
persons.
Warning
: Do not work on the chassis, connect, or disconnect cables during a storm with lightning. Failure to observe this warning
could result in an electrical shock or death.
