ADMONISHMENTS
Important safety admonishments are used throughout this manual to warn of possible hazards to
persons or equipment. An admonishment identifies a possible hazard and then explains what
may happen if the hazard is not avoided. The admonishments — in the form of Dangers,
Warnings, and Cautions — must be followed at all times. These warnings are flagged by use of
the triangular alert icon (seen below), and are listed in descending order of severity of injury or
damage and likelihood of occurrence.
GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
LIST OF ACRONYMS AND ABBREVIATIONS
The following acronyms are used in this manual:
FOT Fiber Optic Terminal
IFC Intra Facility Cable
NG3 New Generation High-Density Fiber Distribution Frame
OSP Outside Plant
Danger: Danger is used to indicate the presence of a hazard that will cause severe personal
injury, death, or substantial property damage if the hazard is not avoided.
Warning: Warning is used to indicate the presence of a hazard that can cause severe personal
injury, death, or substantial property damage if the hazard is not avoided.
Caution: Caution is used to indicate the presence of a hazard that will or can cause minor
personal injury or property damage if the hazard is not avoided.
Danger: Infrared radiation is invisible and can seriously damage the retina of the eye. Do not
look into the ends of any optical fiber. Do not look directly into the optical adapters of the
adapter packs. Exposure to invisible laser radiation may result. An optical power meter should
be used to verify active fibers. A protective cap or hood MUST be immediately placed over any
radiating adapter or optical fiber connector to avoid the potential of dangerous amounts of
radiation exposure. This practice also prevents dirt particles from entering the adapter or
connector.
