Installing a GBIC Optical Port

To install a GBIC optical port, do the following:
Electrical hazard – risk of damage to equipment
Use only components certified by Siemens with RUGGEDCOM products. Damage to
the module and device may occur if compatibility and reliability have not been prop-
erly assessed.
Electrical hazard – risk of damage to equipment
Make sure all electrostatic energy is dissipated before installing or removing compo-
nents from the device. An electrostatic discharge (ESD) can cause serious damage to
the component once it is outside the chassis.

Make sure all potential electrostatic build-up has been properly discharged to
prevent electrostatic discharges (ESD). This can be accomplished by wearing an
ESD-preventive wrist strap connected to either the chassis ground connector or a
bare metal surface on the router/switch.
Remove the dust cover from the port opening in the module.
