Note 1: Maximum CW output power is defined as the highest possible optical power
that the Source can produce at its output connector. Refer to specification sheet for
actual operating power
Note 2: Maximum permissible CW output power is the highest optical power that is
permitted within the appropriate laser class. Refer to specification sheet for actual
operating power
Note 3: International Labelling is accepted by the FDA. This case is ambiguous.
WARNING!
Optical power levels in fiber optic systems can cause permanent eye
injury and damage to eyesight.
