Alcatel-Lucent 6850-P48X Switch User Manual


 
4 Installing the Hardware June 2007
All surfaces that are used for intentionally grounding the EUT
shall be brought to a bright finish and an anti oxidant solution
must be applied to the surfaces being joined.
Non-conductive coatings (such as lacquer and enamel) must be
removed from threads and other contact surfaces to assure
electrical conductivity.
(Thread forming screws with paint piercing washers may be
used for this purpose during installation)
Warning. The intra-building interfaces of this platform,
including Gigabit Ethernet, are suitable for connection to
intra-building or unexposed wiring or cabling only with
shielded and grounded cables at both ends. The intra-building
ports of the equipment must not be metallically connected to
interfaces that connect to the OSP or its wiring.
Note. All bare conductors must be coated with an appro-
priate antioxidant compound before crimp connections are
made. All unplated connectors, braided strap, and bus bars
are to be brought to a bright finish and then coated with an
antioxidant before connecting them.
