Product Damage
Incorrect installation of the product can cause damage of the product.
Only use handles when installing/removing the product to avoid damage/deformation to the
face plate and/or PCB.
Damage to the Product/Backplane or System Components
Bent pins or loose components can cause damage to the product, the backplane, or other
system components.
Therefore, carefully inspect the product and the backplane for both pin and component
integrity before installation.
SMART Embedded Computing and our suppliers take significant steps to ensure there are
no bent pins on the backplane or connector damage to the boards prior to leaving the
factory. Bent pins caused by improper installation or by inserting boards with damaged
connectors could void the SMART Embedded Computing warranty for the backplane or
boards.
Cabling and Connectors
Product Damage
The RJ-45 connector(s) on the face plate are either twisted-pair Ethernet (TPE) or E1/T1/J1
interfaces. Connecting an E1/T1/J1 line to an Ethernet connector may damage the product.
Make sure that TPE connectors near your working area are clearly marked as network
connectors.
