McAfee M-2950 - Working with fiber-optic ports

• This equipment is intended to be grounded. Ensure that the host is connected to earth ground during
normal use.
• Do not remove the outer shell of the Sensor. Doing so will invalidate your warranty.
• Do not operate the system unless all cards, faceplates, front covers, and rear covers are in place. Blank
faceplates and cover panels prevent exposure to hazardous voltages and currents inside the chassis, contain
electromagnetic interference (EMI) that might disrupt other equipment, and direct the ow of cooling air
through the chassis.
• To avoid electric shock, do not connect safety extra-low voltage (SELV) circuits to telephone-network voltage
(TNV) circuits. LAN ports contain SELV circuits, and WAN ports contain TNV circuits. Some LAN and WAN
ports both use RJ-45 connectors. Use caution when connecting cables.
• This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to
Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful
interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates,
uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the
instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.
• Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in which case users
will be required to correct the interference at their own expense.
Working with ber-optic ports
The Sensor uses ber-optic connectors for its Monitoring ports. The connector type is a small form-factor
pluggable (SFP) ber-optic connector that is LC-duplex compatible.
Note the following:
• Fiber-optic SFP ports are considered Class 1 laser or Class 1 LED ports.
To avoid exposure to radiation, do not stare into the aperture of a ber-optic port. Invisible radiation might be
emitted from the aperture of the port when no ber cable is connected.
• Only FDA registered, EN 60825-1 and IEC 60825-1 certied Class 1 SFP laser transceivers are acceptable for
use with the Sensor.
