Laser Safety Compliance Requirements
The GBIC-1063N, GBIC-1063NS, GBIC-1063N-LW, GBIC-1063NS-LW, GBIC-1250NS, and GBIC-1250NS-LW are designed and cer-
tified as Class 1 laser products. If the power supply voltage exceeds 6.0 volts, the GBIC-1063N, GBIC-1063NS, and GBIC-1250NS
may no longer remain Class 1 products. The system using the GBIC-1063N, GBIC-1063NS, and GBIC-1250NS must provide power
supply over voltage protection that guarantees the supply does not exceed 6.0 volts under all fault conditions.
Operating the power supply above 6.0 V, or otherwise operating the GBIC-1063N, GBIC-1063NS, and GBIC-1250NS in a manner
inconsistent with their design and function may result in hazardous radiation exposure, and may be considered an act of modifying or
new manufacturing of a laser product under US regulations contained in 21 CFR(J) or CENELEC regulations contained in EN 60825.
The person(s) performing such an act is required by law to recertify and reidentify the product in accordance with the provisions of 21
CFR(J) for distribution within the USA., and in accordance with provisions of CENELEC EN 60825 (or successive regulations) for dis-
tribution within the CENELEC countries or countries using the IEC 825 standard.
