Preface
Before You Begin
Inspect all shipping cartons and their contents for visible damage. If any damage is found, inform
your supplier immediately.
Note
IMPORTANT! An Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) wrist strap can be plugged into the wrist strap connec-
tors on the front and rear of the chassis, or can be clamped to any open ground connection on the chassis
to prevent equipment damage.
Site Requirements
Inspect the site, particularly the equipment room, before unloading or unpacking the equipment to
ensure the following requirements are met. Refer to your Xedge chassis manual for guidelines.
•
Ensure that grounding provisions are adequate.
•
Ensure that front and rear access space to the equipment is adequate.
•
Ensure that heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems are operating properly.
•
Ensure adequate air flow and sufficient lighting.
•
Check the power resources to ensure that the current ratings of the branch current feeds meet
the requirements of the chassis to be installed. Ensure that redundant power feeds are on
separate circuit breakers.
