The DPU/SuperNIC is installed in a system that operates with voltages that can be lethal. Before
uninstalling the board, please observe the following precautions to avoid injury and prevent damage
to system components.
1.
Remove any metallic objects from your hands and wrists.
2.
It is strongly recommended to use an ESD strap or other antistatic devices.

The below images are for illustration purposes only.
The hardware installation section uses the terminology of white and black harnesses to differentiate
between the two supplied cables. Due to supply chain variations, some DPUs may be supplied with
two black harnesses instead. To clarify the difference between these two harnesses, one black
harness was marked with a "WHITE" label and the other with a "BLACK" label.
The Cabline harness marked with a "WHITE" label should be connected to the connector on the DPU
and Auxiliary PCIe card engraved with "White Cable", while the one marked with a "BLACK" label
should be connected to the connector on the DPU and Auxiliary PCIe card engraved with "Black
Cable".
The harnesses' minimal bending radius is 10[mm].
