5.0 Installation Precautions
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage static-sensitive
devices on circuit modules. Follow these precautions:
■ Do not remove the SwitchModule from its antistatic bag
until you are ready to inspect or to install it.
■ Handle the SwitchModule by the front panel only; do
not hold it by the component board.
■ Use proper grounding techniques when you install the
SwitchModule. These techniques include using a foot
strap and a grounded mat, wearing a grounded static
discharge wrist strap, or touching the metal rack or
frame just before you handle the SwitchModule.
When you handle CoreBuilder 5000 SwitchModules,
follow these precautions to avoid component damage:
■ Do not twist or force the SwitchModule into the hub
when you insert it into the module guides.
■ Match the upper and lower module guides while you
slide the SwitchModule into place.
■ Do not push the SwitchModule all the way into the hub
until the SwitchModule ejectors (if any) are open.
WARNING:
To ensure optical safety when you install
10BASE-FB/FL, FDDI, and 100BASE-FX
SwitchModules, comply with the following
precaution:
Although the data communication LEDs and Lasers
used in this product meet the regulatory
requirements for casual exposure to the eye, as with
