Safety Guidelines

Under proper conditions, this unit will operate reliably and safely in your network. If any

component is improperly handled or installed, equipment failure or personnel hazard may occur.

Use caution and common sense when installing network wires. Use the following guidelines,

especially when unsafe conditions exist or when potentially hazardous voltages are present:

•

Repairs must be performed by qualified service personnel only.

•

To reduce the risk of electrical shock, do not operate equipment with the cover removed.

•

Never install network jacks in a wet location unless the jack is designed for that location.

•

Never touch uninsulated network wires or terminals unless the network line is disconnected

at the network interface.

•

Never install network wiring during an electrical storm.

Antistatic Precautions

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) results from the buildup of static electricity and can cause computer

components to fail. ESD occurs when a person whose body contains a static buildup touches a

computer component. This product card may contain static-sensitive devices that are easily

damaged. Proper handling, grounding and precautionary ESD measures are essential. Keep parts

and cards in antistatic packaging during transport or when not in use. When handling always use

antistatic floorpads, workbenchpads and an antistatic wrist strap connected to a grounded

equipment frame or chassis. If a wrist strap is not available, periodically touch an unpainted metal

surface on the equipment. Never use a conductive tool, like a screw driver or paper clip to set

switches.
