Safety Information
CLASS 1 LASERTRANSCEIVERS
The FPIM-05 and FPIM-07 are Class 1 Laser Products
The FPIM-05 and FPIM-07 use Class 1 Laser transceivers. Read the
following safety information before installing or operating these
adapters.
The Class 1 laser transceivers use an optical feedback loop to maintain Class 1 operation
limits. This control loop eliminates the need for maintenance checks or adjustments. The
output is factory set, and does not allow any user adjustment. Class 1 Laser transceivers
comply with the following safety standards:
• 21 CFR 1040.10 and 1040.11 U.S. Department of Health and
Human Services (FDA).
• IEC Publication 825 (International Electrotechnical Commission).
• CENELEC EN 60825 (European Committee for Electrotechnical
Standardization).
When operating within their performance limitations, laser transceiver output meets the
Class 1 accessible emission limit of all three standards. Class 1 levels of laser radiation are not
considered hazardous.

Safety Information
CLASS 1 LASERTRANSCEIVERS
Laser Radiation and Connectors
When the connector is in place, all laser radiation remains within the fiber. The maximum
amount of radiant power exiting the fiber (under normal conditions) is -12.6 dBm or 55 x 10
-6
watts.
Removing the optical connector from the transceiver allows laser radiation to emit directly
from the optical port. The maximum radiance from the optical port (under worst case
conditions) is 0.8 W cm
-2
or 8 x 10
3
W m
2
sr-1.
Do not use optical instruments to view the laser output. The use of optical instruments to
view laser output increases eye hazard. When viewing the output optical port, power must
be removed from the network adapter.
