Laser Product Label

In accordance with safety regulations, a label on each StorageTek Fibre Channel
product identifies the laser class of the product and the place and date of the
manufacturer. The label appears on top of a Fibre Channel tape drive and near
the Fibre Channel connectors on a Fibre Channel tape library. A copy of the
label is shown here:

Fiber-Optic Cable Handling

Observe these precautions when you handle fiber-optic cables:

Do not coil the cable to less than 96 mm (3.75 in.) in diameter.

Do not bend the cable to less than 12 mm (0.5 in.) in radius. StorageTek
recommends that a cable’s bend radius be no less than 20 times the
diameter of the cable.

Do not pull on the cables; carefully place them into position.

Do not grasp the cables with pliers, grippers, or side cutters; do not attach
pulling devices to the cables or connectors.

Keep cables away from sharp edges or sharp protrusions that could cut or
wear through the cable; make sure that cutouts in the equipment have
protective edging.

Protect the cable from extreme temperature conditions.

WARNING:

Eye hazard. Never look directly into a fiber-optic cable, a fiber-optic
connector, or a laser transceiver module. Hazardous conditions might
exist from laser power levels that are capable of causing injury to the
eye.

Be especially careful when using optical instruments with this
equipment. Such instruments might increase the likelihood of eye injury.

Install the connector’s protective cover whenever the connector is not
connected.
