Storing T640 FPCs

When an FPC is not installed in a router, the FPC must be either stored in the container
in which a spare FPC is shipped or stored horizontally with the component-side up on a
flat, stable surface. When you store an FPC on a horizontal surface or in the shipping
container, always place it inside an antistatic bag. Because the FPC is heavy and because
antistatic bags are fragile, inserting the FPC into the bag is easier with two people. The

position with the faceplate facing their body, the other person slides the opening of
the bag over the FPC connector edge.
