Rack Grounding

When you prepare your equipment rack, ensure that the rack is earth ground. You must ground the equipment rack to

the same ground point the power service uses in your area. The ground path must be permanent.

•

Installing and swapping of Ethernet modules must be done BEFORE power up. If you need to install or replace a

module, power down the system before you install or replace it. If you install or replace a module when the

system is powered up, the system does not recognize the module. Online insertion of modules can result in a

catastrophic failure.

WARNING: Electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage can occur if components are mishandled. Always wear an ESD-

preventive wrist or heel ground strap when handling the S5000 and its components.

NOTE: For the Ethernet module, the part name and port number are inscribed on the handle, as shown in the
