Danger:
•
Invisible laser radiation can be emitted from an adapter card's port apertures when no
cable is connected. Avoid exposure and do not stare into open apertures.
•
Always assume that fiber-optic cables are connected to a light source.
Warning:
•
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage can occur if adapter cards are mishandled.
Always wear an ESD-preventive wrist or ankle strap and always connect an ESD strap
to a nearby ground point that is connected to the site grounding point when working with
an adapter card. Typical ground points include the ground stud on the 7705 SAR-8 or
7705 SAR-18 mounting bracket, or a properly grounded rack or work bench.
•
Always place components on an anti-static surface.
•
Do not power up a 7705 SAR-8 or 7705 SAR-18 before verifying that all common
equipment (chassis, power, cooling, and grounding) is connected properly.
•
The Fan module and all cards in the 7705 SAR-8 chassis must have the same voltage
type.
•
Filler plates are required in all empty slots to prevent excess dust accumulation and to
help control airflow and electromagnetic interference.
•
Use only approved small form-factor pluggable (SFP) fiber-optic devices in adapter card
ports.
•
To comply with the GR-1089-CORE requirement R4-9 [31] standard for
electromagnetic compatibility and safety, all intra-building ports are specified for use
with shielded and grounded cables at both ends.
•
The intra-building port(s) of the equipment or sub-assembly is suitable for connection to
intra-building or unexposed wiring or cabling only. The intra-building port(s) of the
equipment or sub-assembly must not be metallically connected to interfaces that
connect to the Outside Plant (OSP) or its wiring. These interfaces are designed for use
as intra-building interfaces only (Type 2 ports as described in GR-1089-CORE) and
require isolation from the exposed OSP cabling. The addition of primary protectors is
not sufficient protection in order to connect these interfaces metallically to OSP wiring.
