Safety Labels
This section explains the significance of the safety labels attached to some cards. The faceplates of the cards are clearly labeled with warnings about the laser radiation levels. You must understand all warning labels before working on these cards.
Class 1 Laser Product Cards
The TNC, TNCE, TSC, TSCE, TNCS, OSCM, OSC-CSM, 4MD-xx.x, MXP_2.5G_10G, MXP_2.5G_10E, MXP_2.5G_10E_C, MXP_2.5G_10E_L, ADM-10G, GE_XP, 10GE_XP, GE_XPE, 10GE_XPE, and OTU2_XP cards are Class 1 laser products.
![]() Note |
Due to memory limitations, TCC2/TCC2P cards are not supported from Release 10.5.2 onwards. As a result, in a multishelf configuration, the TCC2/TCC2P card cannot be a node controller or a shelf controller. Upgrade the TCC2/TCC2P card to a TCC3 card. |
The labels that appear on these cards are described in the following sections.
Class 1 Laser Product Label
The Class 1 Laser Product label is shown in the following figure.
![](/c/dam/en/us/td/i/100001-200000/140001-150000/145001-146000/145952.ps/_jcr_content/renditions/145952.jpg)
Class 1 lasers are products whose irradiance does not exceed the Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPE) value. Therefore, for Class 1 laser products the output power is below the level at which it is believed eye damage will occur. Exposure to the beam of a Class 1 laser will not result in eye injury and can therefore be considered safe. However, some Class 1 laser products might contain laser systems of a higher Class but there are adequate engineering control measures to ensure that access to the beam is not reasonably likely. Anyone who dismantles a Class 1 laser product that contains a higher Class laser system is potentially at risk of exposure to a hazardous laser beam.
Hazard Level 1 Label
The Hazard Level 1 label is shown in the following figure. This label is displayed on the faceplate of the cards.
![](/c/dam/en/us/td/i/000001-100000/65001-70000/65001-66000/65542.ps/_jcr_content/renditions/65542.jpg)
The Hazard Level label warns users against exposure to laser radiation of Class 1 limits calculated in accordance with IEC60825-1 Ed.1.2.
Laser Source Connector Label
The Laser Source Connector label is shown in the following figure.
![](/c/dam/en/us/td/i/000001-100000/95001-100000/96001-97000/96635.ps/_jcr_content/renditions/96635.jpg)
This label indicates that a laser source is present at the optical connector where the label has been placed.
FDA Statement Labels
The FDA Statement labels are shown in the following figures. These labels show compliance to FDA standards and that the hazard level classification is in accordance with IEC60825-1 Am.2 or Ed.1.2.
