Table 3-4 Environment for Installing the ATCA-7150 Suite
Item Description
Cabinet Cabinet that complies with the IEC297 standard
Note:
Leave enough space around the cabinet. Nothing blocks the fans and air
conditioner to ensure airflow and heat dissipation.
Shelf Shelf of the system
Note:
Consider heat dissipation when you choose slots to install blades. If the shelf is
not fully configured, install the blades in scattered slots.
Product Damage
Electrostatic discharge can damage circuits or shorten their life.
The ESD-preventive wrist strap prevents only the static electricity on your body from
damaging the blade. To prevent the static electricity on your clothes, it is recommended to
wear the antistatic clothes. Additionally, you have to make sure that the cabinet and shelf are
properly grounded - for details, refer to the respective system documentation.
The cable of an ESD-preventive wrist strap is limited. In this case, before you wear the ESD-
preventive wrist strap, place the device within 0.5 m away from the shelf.
