Abstract
This paper examines the optical safety considerations of free-space optical communication systems (FSOC). These telecommunication systems communicate over distances through free space using optical communication technology. Topics include eye safety, restricted access, IEC 60825–1 and IEC 60825–12 compliance, and safety considerations for aviation pilots from laser light. FSOC systems would be expected to comply with IEC 62368–1, coordinated with IEC 60950–22 for outdoor systems, as well as the aforementioned IEC 60825 standards.
