Preventing Electrostatic Discharge

Installation Guide for the Avaya P550R, P580, P880, and P882 Multiservice Switches v5.3.1
AC power source(s) within 2 m (6 ft.) (separate sources, on
separate circuits, if you require maximum fault tolerance)
Ambient temperature between 0°C and 40°C (32°F to 104°F)
Relative humidity less than 95%, non-condensing
The process for installing the switch is as follows:
1. Preventing Electrostatic Discharge
2. Installing the Chassis
3. Installing the Cable Management Bracket
4. Installing the Modules
5. Installing the Cables
6. Ensuring that You Have Enough Power Available
7. Connecting the Power Supplies
8. Powering On the System
To prevent electrostatic discharge (ESD) from damaging the module
components:
1. Always wear a grounded electrostatic discharge (ESD) wrist
strap (not supplied) when installing and removing modules
from the switch chassis. Ground the other end of the ESD
strap by attaching it to the chassis.
2. Ground the chassis. The unit is grounded through the power
cord when it is connected between the unit and the primary
power source.
3. Lay out the static-dissipative work surface (ESD mat) on a flat
surface.
* Note: Avaya does not supply the required ESD mat.
4. Connect the ground cord assembly to the ESD mat and to the
ground plug on the switch fan tray.
