cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any
interference received, including interference that may cause
undesired operation.
NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with
the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC
rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection
against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a
commercial environment. This equipment uses, generates, and can
radiate radio frequency energy and if not installed in accordance with
the operator’s manual, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is
likely to cause interference in which case the user will be required to
correct the interference at his own expense.
WARNING: Changes or modifications made to this device which
are not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance
could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
INDUSTRY CANADA NOTICE
This digital apparatus does not exceed the Class A limits for radio
noise emissions from digital apparatus set out in the Radio
Interference Regulations of the Canadian Department of
Communications.
Le présent appareil numérique n’émet pas de bruits radioélectriques
dépassant les limites applicables aux appareils numériques de la class
A prescrites dans le Règlement sur le brouillage radioélectrique
édicté par le ministère des Communications du Canada.

SAFETY INFORMATION
CLASS 1 LASER TRANSCEIVERS
The VH-2402-L3 24-port switch uses Class 1 Laser transceivers.
Read the following safety information before installing or operating
these modules.
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).

9033693-01 vi
•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 LASER TRANSCEIVERS
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 3W m 2sr -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
switch.
WARNING: FIBER OPTIC PORT SAFETY
When using a fiber optic port, never look at the transmit laser
while it is powered on. Also, never look directly at the fiber TX
port and fiber cable ends when they are powered on.
AVERTISSMENT: PORTS POUR FIBRES OPTIQUES -
SÉCURITÉ SUR LE PLAN OPTIQUE
Ne regardez jamais le laser tant qu'il est sous tension. Ne
regardez jamais directement le port TX (Transmission) à fibres
optiques et les embouts de câbles à fibres optiques tant qu'ils
sont sous tension.
