LED Indicators Descriptions

Optical Rx


Name Descriptions
POWER Power Supply Light: when the power is turned on, the green LED is light up and always on, and the LED does not light up when the power is turned off.
ALARM Photo Detector Receiving Optical power Low Alarm Light: when the Rx module is powered on and photodetector does not detect optical power or the detected optical power is less than 0dBm, the LED is light up in red; when the Rx module is powered on and the received optical power is within the normal range(>0dBm), the LED does not light up.

Laser Safety and ESD Protection

1,The laser safety level Tx modules is ClassB (5mW~500mW). When using the Tx laser, the user has to avoid to exposure to the beam.

2, The optical Tx and Rx modules have electrostatics sensitivity devices, so the user has to do a good job of ESD protection when using the modules.

Heat Dissipation Requirements:

In order to ensure proper performance, heat sinking and heat removal must be provided by the user to limit maximum temperature of the transmitter and receiver module. The bottom of the module is the preferred heat dissipation surface.
