For OptiFiber Pro OTDR Modules
WWarning: Class 1 and Class 2 Laser Products
*
To prevent possible eye damage caused by
hazardous radiation:
• Do not look directly into optical connectors. Some
optical equipment emits invisible radiation that can
cause permanent damage to your eyes.
• Do not do any tests that activate the outputs on the
tester unless a fiber is attached to the output.
• When you inspect fiber endfaces, use only
magnification devices that have the correct filters.
• Use of controls, adjustments, or procedures not
stated herein can possibly result in hazardous
radiation exposure.
WCaution
To prevent damage to the tester or cables under
test:
• Do not connect the OTDR port to an optical source.
Doing so can cause damage to the OTDR receiver.
• Do not connect the tester to an active network.
Doing so causes unreliable test results, can disrupt
network operations, and can cause damage to the
OTDR receiver.
• Do not touch reflective surfaces (such as metal) to
the end of a fiber cable connected to the OTDR
when the OTDR is operating. An open fiber
connector endface has about a 4% reflection.
Holding a reflective surface near the connector
endface can cause more than a 4% reflection, which
can damage the photodetector in the OTDR.
