The key protective feature of Hazard Level 1M is that its limits are set such that the unaided eye — with a natural pupil aperture of approximately 7 mm — cannot collect enough power from a fiber ...

What is the eye protection power of an optical amplifier - Indzawo Optic Connect [PDF]
We all know that high-power optical amplifiers (like EDFAs) are the engines driving long-haul networks. But they also pose a serious risk. The invisible infrared light (typically 1550nm) pumping out of an
