Unpacking and Initial Setup

Unpacking the Chassis

To protect your OmniSwitch chassis and hardware compo-
nents from electrostatic discharge (ESD) and physical damage,
read all unpacking recommendations and instructions care-
fully before beginning.

Recommendations

to the location where it will be installed.
Depending on your order, Small Form-Factor Plugga-

until they are ready to be installed.

pouches that are enclosed and set them aside.
