ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE PRECAUTIONS
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can cause damage to any product, add-in modules or stand-alone units, containing electronic
components. Always observe the following precautions when installing or handling these kinds of products.
1. Do not remove unit from its protective packaging until ready to install.
2. Wear an ESD wrist grounding strap before handling any module or component. If the wrist strap is not available,
maintain grounded contact with the system unit throughout any procedure requiring ESD protection.
3. Hold the units by the edges; do not touch the electronic components or gold connectors.
4.
After removal, always place the boards on a grounded, static-free surface, ESD pad or in a proper ESD bag. Do not slide
the modules or stand-alone units over any surface.
WARNING! Integrated circuits and fiber optic components are extremely susceptible to
electrostatic discharge damage. Do not handle these components directly unless you are
a qualified service technician and use tools and techniques that conform to accepted
industry practices.
