SAFETY INFORMATION
CLASS 1 LASER TRANSCEIVERS
THE DELHE-UA GIGABIT ETHERNET MODULES USE
CLASS 1 LASER TRANSCEIVERS. READ THE FOLLOWING
SAFETY INFORMATION BEFORE INSTALLING OR OPERATING
THESE ADAPTERS.
The 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).
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 103 W m2 sr-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 network adapter.

A DELHE-UA can be installed in any DIGITAL device that supports
HSIMs (High Speed Interface Module) technology (e.g., DLE52-MA,
DLE28-MA).
Refer to the Release Notes for the version of firmware running
on the DIGITAL host platform to ensure that the DELHE-UA is
supported.
The following subsections provide generic instructions for installing a
DELHE-UA in an interface module. Refer to the specific interface
module documentation for exact HSIM slot and connector locations.
The FEPIMs should already have been installed in the
DELHE-UA at this time. If the FEPIMs have not been installed,
return to Section 2.2.
2.3.1
Installing the DELHE-UA in an Interface Module
To install a DELHE-UA in an interface module that supports HSIM
technology, perform the following steps.
1. Note the ports of the interface module that have cables attached to
them. Write down the ports and label the cables to make it easier to
reattach the network properly after the installation. Then disconnect
the cables from the ports.
2. Attach the antistatic wrist strap (refer to the instructions outlined on
the antistatic wrist strap package).
3. If the interface module is installed in a chassis, unlock the top and
bottom plastic locking tabs of the module faceplate.
4. Remove the module from the chassis, and place it down flat with the
internal components facing up.

cable or twisted pair cable. The media chosen determines which type of
FEPIM to be used. When using fiber optic cable, use either the
DELFX-UI or the DELF3-UI. The DELFX-UI is used for multimode
fiber cable, and the DELF3-UI is used for single mode fiber cable. Refer
to Appendix B for details on which FEPIM to use with the appropriate
fiber optic cable. To connect to the network using fiber optic cable, refer
to Section 2.4.1. When using twisted pair cabling, use the DELTX-UI. To
connect to the network using twisted pair cable, refer to Section 2.4.2.
2-8
DELHE-UA User’s Guide
Connecting to the Network
2.4.1
Connecting a Fiber Optic Segment to the FEPIM
DIGITAL offers fiber optic cables that use SC style connectors which are
keyed to ensure proper crossover of the transmit and receive fibers.
An odd number of crossovers (preferably one) must be
maintained between like devices so that the transmit port of
one device is connected to the receive port of the other device
and vice versa.
If the fiber optic cable being used has SC style connectors that
do not resemble MIC style connectors, or has SC connectors
on one end and a different type on the other, such as ST
connectors, ensure that the proper crossover occurs.
1. Remove the protective covers from the fiber optic ports and from the
ends of the connectors.
Leave the protective covers in place when the connectors are
not in use to prevent contamination.
Certain FEPIMs use Class 1 lasers. 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 network adapter.
DELHE-UA User’s Guide
2-9
Chapter 2: Installation
Do not touch the ends of the fiber optic strands, and do not let
the ends come in contact with dust, dirt, or other contaminants.
Contamination of the ends causes problems in data
transmissions. If the ends become contaminated, blow the
surfaces clean with a canned duster. A fiber port cleaning swab
saturated with optical-grade isopropyl alcohol may also be
used to clean the ends.
!
2. Insert one end of the SC connector into the FEPIM.
3. At the other end of the fiber optic cable, attach the SC connector to the
other device.
4. Verify that a link exists by checking that the port receive LED is ON
(flashing amber, blinking green, or solid green). If the receive LED is
OFF and the transmit LED is not blinking amber, perform the
following steps until it is ON:
a. Check that the power is turned on for the device at the other end
of the link.
b. Verify proper crossover of fiber strands between the port on the
DELHE-UA and the fiber optic device at the other end of the fiber
optic link segment.
c. Verify that the fiber connection meets the dB loss specifications
outlined in Appendix B.
If a link has not been established, refer to Chapter 3, LANVIEW LEDs,
before contacting a DIGITAL representative.
2.4.2
Connecting a Twisted Pair Segment
to the DELTX-UI
A DELTX-UI has an internal crossover switch. When connecting a
workstation, use a straight-through cable and set the FEPIM crossover
switch shown in Figure 2-5 to the crossed over position marked with X.
When connecting networking devices, such as another bridge, repeater, or
router, use a straight-through cable and set the FEPIM crossover switch
shown in Figure 2-5 to the straight-through position, marked with =.
