3.6 Laser
The laser hazard level of this device is Class 1.

When handling optical fibers, do not stand close to, or look into the optical fiber outlet
directly with unaided eyes.

3.6.1 General Laser Information

Laser transceivers/transmitters are used in the optical transmission system and associated test
tools. The wavelength of the laser is between 780 nm and 1600 nm. Because the laser being
transmitted through the optical fiber produces a small beam of light, it has the very high
power density and is invisible to human eyes. When a beam of light enters the eye, retina may
be hurt.
Wavelengths of laser used in telecommunications can cause thermal damage to the retina.
Lasers used in lightwave systems have a larger beam divergence, typically 10 to 20 degrees.
Viewing an un-terminated fiber or damaged fiber with the unaided eye at distances greater
than 150 mm (6 inches) will normally not cause eye injury. However, damage may occur if an
optical tool such as a microscope, magnifying glass or eye loupe is used to view the energized
fiber end.
In its normal operating mode, a lightwave system is totally enclosed and presents no risk of
eye injury. Additional safety is achieved by an Automatic Laser Shut-down (ALS) of the
system. The ALS, however, can be applied for bi-directional transmission only. If the receiver
side does not detect the laser from the transmission side, it will give the transmission side a
signal. Upon receiving the signal, the ALS will shut down the laser emission within 100 ms.

3.6.2 Laser Safety Guidelines

Read the following guidelines to avoid laser radiation:
z Read the instructions before installing, operating and maintaining the device. Ignoring
the instructions can cause exposure to dangerous laser radiation.
z Wear a pair of eye-protective glasses when you are handling lasers or fibers.
z All the operation shall be performed by authorized personnel who have completed the
approved training courses.
z Make sure that the optical source is switched off before disconnecting optical fiber
connectors.
z Before opening the front door of an optical transmission system, always take care that
you are not exposed to the laser radiation.
z Never look into the end of an exposed fiber or an open connector when you are not sure
whether the optical source is switched off or not.
z Use an optical power meter to check and ensure that the optical source is switched off by
measuring the optical power.

3-10 Huawei Technologies Proprietary Issue 02 (2007-08-15)

OptiX OSN 1500
Compliance and Safety Manual 3 Safety Information

z Never use an optical tool such as a microscope, a magnifying glass or an eye loupe to
view the optical connector or fiber.

3.6.3 Handling Fibers

Read the instructions before handling fibers.
z Cutting and splicing fibers must be performed by the trained personnel only.
z Before cutting or splicing the fiber, ensure the fiber is disconnected from the optical
source. After disconnecting the fiber, use a protecting cap to protect all the optical
connectors.

3.7 Working at Heights

When working at heights, be cautious to prevent objects from falling.

Working at high altitude shall comply with the following requirements:

z The personnel who work at high altitude must be trained.
z The operating machines and tools shall be carried and handled safely to avoid falling.
z Safety protection measures, such as wearing a helmet and a safety belt, shall be taken.
z In cold areas, wear heat-retaining clothes before the high-altitude operation.
z All lifting appliances must be checked and ensured to be intact before the high-altitude
operation.

3.7.1 Safety Guide on Ladder Use

Checking the Ladder
Before using the ladder, first check if the ladder is damaged. Make sure the ladder is safe for
