Certification and Classification

The LPe16000 Series HBA host adapters may contain one or more examples of a laser

product known as a small form factor transceiver. This transceiver provides the

physical connection to the optical cable, and its LC-style connector extends through the

mounting bracket. In turn, the host adapter can be inserted into any host system's

appropriate PCIe expansion slot.
In the United States, all optical small form factor transceivers sold by Emulex are

certified as Class 1 laser products that conform to the requirements contained in the

Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) regulation 21 CFR subchapter J.

The certification is indicated by a label located on the optical small form factor

transceiver.
In Europe, all optical small form factor transceivers sold by Emulex are certified as

Class 1 laser component assemblies that conform to the requirements contained in the

CENELEC (European Committee for Electrotechnical Standardization) standard

EN60825-1:2007 (including amendment 11) and EN60825-2:2004 (including amendment

1). Small form factor transceivers are certified by a recognized European testing agency

and have appropriate markings on the assembly. The DHHS conformity label and

European conformity mark will not be visible externally once the optical small form

factor transceiver is connected to or inserted in the host adapter and the adapter is

installed into a system.

Labeling Requirements

No caution or danger labels are required for use of the small form factor transceiver

since they are Class 1 laser component assembly. In the U.S., the only laser safety label

required is the DHHS certification label that already appears on the small form factor

transceiver. In Europe, the EN60825-1/EN60825-2 standards require that the

system-level product has a Class 1 information label permanently attached and clearly

visible whenever access to the small form factor transceiver optical port is possible.

Each Class 1 product shall have affixed an explanatory label bearing the words:

Alternatively, at the discretion of the manufacturer, the same statement may be

included in user information. If a label is used, an example of the IEC Class 1

information label that is suitable for most European countries is shown below. The

label consists of black printing on a white background. Languages represented on this
