This Class A digital apparatus meets all requirements of the Canadian Interference-Causing
Equipment Regulations.
Cet appareil numérique német pas de perturbations radioélectriques dépassant les normes
applicables aux appareils numériques de Classe A préscrites dans le Règlement sur les
interferences radioélectriques établi par le Ministère des Communications du Canada.
The SGI Altix XE250 product is FCC compliant under test conditions that include the use of
shielded cables between the server and its peripherals. Your server and any peripherals that you
purchase from SGI have shielded cables. Shielded cables reduce the possibility of interference
with radio, television, and other devices. If you use any cables that are not from SGI, ensure that
they are shielded. Telephone cables do not require shielding. Optional monitor cables supplied
with your server system use additional filtering molded into the cable jacket to reduce radio
frequency interference. Always use the cable that is supplied with your system. If your monitor
cable becomes damaged, obtain a replacement cable from SGI.
SGI designs and tests its products to be resistant to the effects of electrostatic discharge (ESD).
ESD is a source of electromagnetic interference and can cause problems ranging from data errors
and lockups to permanent component damage. It is important that you keep all the covers and
doors, including the plastics, in place while you are operating the server system. The shielded
cables that came with the server and its peripherals should be installed correctly, with all
thumbscrews fastened securely. An ESD wrist strap may be included with some products, such as
memory or PCI upgrades. Use the wrist strap when you install these upgrades to prevent the flow
of static electricity; it is designed to protect your system from ESD damage.
