will
cause severe personal
injury, death, or substantial property damage if the hazard is not avoided.
Warning:
Warning is used to indicate the presence of a hazard that
can
cause severe personal
injury, death, or substantial property damage if the hazard is not avoided.
Caution:
Caution is used to indicate the presence of a hazard that
will
or

personal injury or property damage if the hazard is not avoided.
Danger:
Infrared radiation is invisible and can seriously damage the retina of the eye. Do not
look into the ends of any optical fiber. Do not look directly into the optical adapters of the adapter
packs. Exposure to invisible laser radiation may result. An optical power meter should be used to
verify active fibers. A protective cap or hood MUST be immediately placed over any radiating
adapter or optical fiber connector to avoid the potential of dangerous amounts of radiation
exposure. This practice also prevents dirt particles from entering the adapter or connector
.
