Universal Serial Bus Ports on the ERS 3600 Series

The ERS 3600 Series includes a USB Type A port on the front panel adjacent to the console port.
The USB Type A port enables switch administrators to perform tasks that were previously completed
through TFTP with a commonly available USB Mass Storage Device (also know as a flash drive or
thumb drive). These tasks include:
• software download
• syslog backup
• ASCII configuration file generation and download
File and system operations are limited by the size of the USB device in use. Only USB drives that
comply with the Mass Storage sub-section of the USB 1.1, USB 2.0, and USB 2.1 specification are
supported. Support is not extended to third-party devices that do not comply with these standards.
Consult the documentation provided with the USB drive to ensure compliance with these standards.

Electrostatic Discharge Prevention

This module provides information and procedures for the prevention of electrostatic discharge
during the installation process.
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) is a discharge of stored static electricity that can damage equipment
and impair electrical circuitry. These electrostatic voltages can result from friction, including, but not
exclusive to, pulling cabling through conduits, walking across carpeted areas, and building up of
static charge in clothing. ESD damage occurs when electronic components are improperly handled
and can result in complete or intermittent failures. While networking equipment is commonly
designed and tested to withstand common mode ESD events, voltage sometimes can be
discharged to some connector pins but not others, or to some pins before others, which has the
potential to damage the networking equipment.
