Unpacking
All SignalCore products ship in antistatic packaging (bags) to prevent damage from electrostatic discharge
(ESD). Under certain conditions, an ESD event can instantly and permanently damage several of the
components found in SignalCore products. Therefore, to avoid damage when handling any SignalCore
hardware, you must take the following precautions:
•
Ground yourself using a grounding strap or by touching a grounded metal object.
•
Touch the antistatic bag to a grounded metal object before removing the hardware
from its packaging.
!
•
Never touch exposed signal pins. Due to the inherent performance degradation caused
by ESD protection circuits in the RF path, the device has minimal ESD protection
against direct injection of ESD into the RF signal pins.
•
When not in use, store all SignalCore products in their original antistatic bags.
Remove the product from its packaging and inspect it for loose components or any signs of damage. Notify
SignalCore immediately if the product appears damaged in any way.
