TX Matrix Plus Laser and LED Safety Guidelines

General Laser Safety Guidelines

When working around components that contain lasers, observe the following safety guidelines to prevent eye injury:

• Do not look into unterminated ports or at fibers that connect to unknown sources.
• Do not examine unterminated optical ports with optical instruments.
• Avoid direct exposure to the beam.

  Warning: Unterminated optical connectors can emit invisible laser radiation. The lens in the human eye focuses all the laser power on the retina, so focusing the eye directly on a laser source—even a low-power laser—could permanently damage the eye.

TX Matrix Plus Laser Safety Standards

TXP-F13 SIBs and TXP-T1600 SIBs are equipped with laser transmitters, which are considered Class 1M Laser Products.

The TX Matrix Plus router is classified by the following laser safety standards: Class 1M laser product (IEC 60825-1 2001–01).

The maximum output is less than 10 mW when measured through a 3.5-mm aperture located at a distance of 100 mm and the wavelength is 850 nm from fiber-optic array ports.
