The Mini-GBIC and its host switch are sensitive to static discharges. Use an antistatic wrist

parte frontal del Mini- GBIC. Si lo hace, puede dañar el Mini- GBIC, puesto que es muy
sensible a las descargas de electricidad estática, al igual que el dispositivo host. Utilice la

procedimiento. Si no lo hace, pude dañar el Mini- GBIC o el dispositivo host. Mientras no
esté instalado, mantenga el Mini- GBIC en su bolsa antiestática o en cualquier otro
