Regulatory Compliance
The Regulatory Compliance for transceiver performance
is shown in Table 1. The overall equipment design will
determine the certication level. The transceiver per-
formance is oered as a gure of merit to assist the
designer in considering their use in equipment designs.
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD)
There are two design cases in which immunity to ESD
damage is important.
The rst case is during handling of the transceiver prior
to mounting it on the circuit board. It is important to
use normal ESD handling precautions for ESD sensitive
devices. These precautions include using grounded
wrist straps, work benches, and oor mats in ESD con-
trolled areas.
The second case to consider is static discharges to the
exterior of the equipment chassis containing the trans-
ceiver parts. To the extent that the LC connector recep-
tacle is exposed to the outside of the equipment chassis
it may be subject to whatever system-level ESD test
criteria that the equipment is intended to meet.
Electromagnetic Interference (EMI)
Most equipment designs utilizing these high-speed
transceivers from Avago Technologies will be required
to meet FCC regulations in the United States, CENELEC
EN55022 (CISPR 22) in Europe and VCCI in Japan. Refer
to EMI section (page 9) for more details.
Immunity
Transceivers will be subject to radio-frequency electro-
magnetic elds following the IEC 61000-4-3 test method.
Eye Safety
These laser-based transceivers are classied as AEL Class
I (U.S. 21 CFR(J) and AEL Class 1 per EN 60825-1 (+A11).
They are eye safe when used within the data sheet
limits per CDRH. They are also eye safe under normal
operating conditions and under all reasonably foresee-
able single fault conditions per EN60825-1. Avago Tech-
nologies has tested the transceiver design for compli-
ance with the requirements listed below under normal
operating conditions and under single fault conditions
where applicable. TUV Rheinland has granted certica-
tion to these transceivers for laser eye safety and use in
EN 60825-2 applications. Their performance enables the
transceivers to be used without concern for eye safety
up to 3.5 V transmitter V
