Place all printed circuit boards on an antistatic mat until you  
are ready to install them. If you do not have an antistatic  
mat, wear a discharge leash to free yourself of static before  
touching any of the printed circuit boards, or free yourself of  
static by touching a grounded metal object before handling a  
printed circuit board.

Warning: Fiber optic equipment can emit laser or infrared light that can  
injure your eyes. Never look into an optical fiber or connector port.  
Always assume that fiber optic cables are connected to a light source.  
Vorsicht: Glasfaserkomponenten können Laserlicht bzw. Infrarotlicht  
abstrahlen, wodurch Ihre Augen geschädigt werden können. Schauen  
Sie niemals in einen Glasfaser-LWL oder ein Anschlußteil. Gehen Sie  
stets davon aus, daß das Glasfaserkabel an eine Lichtquelle  
angeschlossen ist.  
Avertissement: Léquipement à fibre optique peut émettre des  
rayons laser ou infrarouges qui risquent d’entraîner des lésions  
oculaires. Ne jamais regarder dans le port d’un connecteur ou d’un  
câble à fibre optique. Toujours supposer que les câbles à fibre optique  
sont raccordés à une source lumineuse.

Advertencia: Los equipos de fibra óptica pueden emitir radiaciones  
de láser o infrarrojas que pueden dañar los ojos. No mire nunca en el  
interior de una fibra óptica ni de un puerto de conexión. Suponga  
siempre que los cables de fibra óptica están conectados a una fuente  
luminosa.  
Avvertenza: Le apparecchiature a fibre ottiche emettono raggi laser o  
infrarossi che possono risultare dannosi per gli occhi. Non guardare  
mai direttamente le fibre ottiche o le porte di collegamento. Tenere in  
considerazione il fatto che i cavi a fibre ottiche sono collegati a una  
sorgente luminosa.

Handling, safety, and environmental  
guidelines  
Before installing your GBIC, read the following handling, safety,  
and environmental guidelines:  
GBICs are static sensitive. To prevent damage from  
electrostatic discharge (ESD), follow your normal board  
and component handling procedures.  
GBICs are dust sensitive. When you store a GBIC, or when  
you disconnect it from a fiber optic cable, always keep the  
dust cover over the GBICs optical bores.  
To clean contaminants from the optical bores of a GBIC,  
use an alcohol swab or equivalent to clean the ferrules of  
the optical connector.  
Dispose of this product according to all national laws and  
regulations.  
Warning: Fiber optic equipment can emit laser or  
infrared light that can injure your eyes. Never look into  
an optical fiber or connector port. Always assume that  
fiber optic cables are connected to a light source.

Note: When shorter lengths of single-mode fiber cable  
are used, there is a risk of overloading the receiver. It  
may be necessary to insert an in-line optical attenuator  
in the link to prevent overloading, as follows:  
Insert a 10 dB in-line optical attenuator between the  
fiber optic cable plant and the receiving port on the  
1000BASE-ZX GBIC, at each end of the link, if the  
fiber optic cable span is less than 25 km.  
Insert a 5 dB in line optical attenuator between the  
fiber optic cable plant and the receiving port on the  
1000BASE-ZX GBIC, at each end of the link, if the  
fiber optic cable span is less than 50 km.
