Precautionary Procedures
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage static-sensitive devices on circuit
boards. Follow these precautions when you handle the 24-Port Module.
Do not remove the board from its antistatic shielding bag until you
are ready to inspect or install it.
Handle the board by the faceplate only.
Use proper grounding techniques when you install the 24-Port
Module. These techniques include:
Using a foot strap and grounded mat or wearing a
grounded static discharge wrist strap.
Touching the grounded rack or other source of ground
just before you handle a 24-Port Module.
