ESD Prevention

To minimize the damage to the product pay attention to the following points:
 Before touching the card or electronic components make sure that you are working
in an ESD safe environment

Attach an ESD-preventive wrist strap before operating the product. Both terminals
of the wrist strap must contact well. One terminal touches bare skin and the
terminal with the alligator clip attaches to the grounding lug at I/O panel of the
system.
 Avoid moving as much as possible. Movement gathers static electricity around you

Do not touch the solder point, pin, or bare circuit
 Do not leave the product in an area where others can operate it
 Install the product right after you take it out of the anti-static package. If you need
to lay down the product, replace it into the anti-static package. Do not place the
product on the shelf or cabinet.
 Monitor the temperature and humidity of the equipment room. Warm air decreases
the humidity but increases the static electricity in the room.

Mounting Options

The Extreme Edge Server is designed for installation in an IP55/IP65 19" outdoor cabinet
or a standard 19" rack and is compliant to an IP20 Ingress Protection Rating.
The Extreme Edge Server is required to be installed inside a closed, weather protected
location. For installation sites outside of a building, a sealed cabinet is recommended. For
cold weather start-up, wind conditions may overwhelm the server's designed-in heating
elements. In locations where cold airflow is present and where the input voltage is below
nominal, the customer may be required to provide additional heating to the cabinet.
When installing the system, you must allow for 50mm (2 inches) on each side of the server
for proper airflow.
Personal or System Damage
Unstable system installation in a rack can cause the rack to tip over. If your system
is the only one in the rack, make sure to mount the system in the lowest part of the
rack. If other systems are installed in one rack, start with the heaviest component at
the bottom.
If the rack is equipped with stabilizing devices, make sure that they are installed and
extended so that the rack is secure. Then proceed to mount or service the system.
