SAFETY INFORMATION
LASER RADIATION AND CONNECTORS
When the connector is in place, all laser radiation remains within the fiber. The maximum 
amount of radiant power exiting the fiber (under normal conditions) is -12.6 dBm or 55 x 10 
-
6
 
watts.  Removing the optical connector from the transceiver allows laser radiation to emit 
directly from the optical port. The maximum radiance from the optical port (under worst case 
conditions) is 0.8 W cm 
-2
 
or 8 x 10 
W m 
sr
-1
.
Do not use optical instruments to view the laser output. The use of optical instruments to view 
laser output increases eye hazard. When viewing the output optical port, power must be re-
moved from the network adapter.
