Laser Safety During Operation
Invisible laser radiation may be emitted from disconnected fibers or connectors. Do not stare into beams or
view directly with optical instruments. Statement 1051
Warning
Electrical Safety
The passive optical modules are optically and electrically passive and require no electrical connections. No
electrostatic discharge (ESD) or other electrical safety considerations apply.
Fiber Shuffle
The MF-6RU unit is six RU high and can be used to interface 14 single slot passive optical modules with the
NCS 2015 ECU. It contains a USB 3.0 hub that consolidates all USB 2.0 connections between the passive
optical modules units and the NCS 2015 ECU using a single USB cable. It allows connections between line
cards and optical passive modules units using simple cabling. The slots are covered by blank units. The
MF-6RU unit is shipped with USB connectors connected to the corresponding blank units. A plastic transparent
door can be installed in front of the unit for fiber and cable management. Mounting brackets are shipped with
the unit.
