Safety Information
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage components on the module. ESD
occurs when the module is improperly handled and can cause complete or
intermittent failures. To prevent ESD-related damage:
■
Always wear the ESD wrist strap provided with the LANplex system,
ensuring that it makes good skin contact
■
Keep the module in its antistatic shielded bag until you are ready to install it
■
Do not touch the components, pins, leads, or solder connections
■
Always handle the module by its edges
Prior to Installation
Before you install your new module, follow the pre-installation instructions
below:
Read if initial
installation
Your LANplex system is shipped without modules installed and with
protective faceplates covering the installation slots. Initial installation
requires that you remove the protective faceplate covering the selected
installation slot prior to installing the option module.
To remove the faceplate: 1) loosen the two captive screws securing the
faceplate to the chassis and 2) pull the faceplate away from the system.

CAUTION:
When handling modules, 3Com recommends that you always use
a wrist strap connected to a proper ground. This helps prevent the module
from being damaged by electrostatic discharge. Additionally, when not in
use, the module should be stored in an antistatic bag.
