Warning: These Optical transceivers contain lasers!
As per the manufacturer’s datasheet:
–Class 1 Eye safe per requirements of IEC 60825-1 /CDRH
Wikipedia notes:
– A Class 1 laser is safe under all conditions of normal use….It is important to
realize that certain lasers classified as Class 1 may still pose a hazard when
viewed with a telescope or microscope of sufficiently large aperture
Therefore, when working with lasers, please
observe the following caution:
