Caution
Each port adapter circuit board is mounted to a metal carrier and is sensitive to electrostatic discharge
(ESD) damage.
Warning
During this procedure, wear grounding wrist straps to avoid ESD damage to the card. Do not directly
touch the midplane with your hand or any metal tool, or you could shock yourself. Statement 181
Warning
Blank faceplates and cover panels serve three important functions: they prevent exposure to
hazardous voltages and currents inside the chassis; they contain electromagnetic interference (EMI)
that might disrupt other equipment; and they direct the flow of cooling air through the chassis. Do not
operate the system unless all cards, faceplates, front covers, and rear covers are in place.
