Safety Information
CAUTION
Pluggable optical modules may become very hot after prolonged use. Take care when removing a pluggable optical
module from the option card. If the pluggable optical module is too hot to touch, disengage the module and allow it
to cool before removing it completely.
Before installing a Summit option card into your network:
● Read the latest installation and safety information in this chapter and the section specific to the optic
type you are installing.
● See Appendix A, “Safety Information,” for additional safety information and Appendix B, “Technical
Specifications,” for additional information regarding regulatory compliance certifications.
WARNING!
When working with laser optic modules, always take the following precautions to prevent exposure to hazardous
radiation:
●
Never look at the transmit LED/laser through a magnifying device while it is powered on.
●
Never look directly at a fiber port on the switch or at the ends of a fiber cable when they are powered on.
●
Invisible laser radiation can occur when the connectors are open. Avoid direct eye exposure to the beam
when optic connections are unplugged.
●
Never alter, modify, or change an optic device in any way other than suggested in this document.
