Class B
Japanese Requirement
Shielded Cables
The device is FCC-compliant under test conditions that include the use of shielded cables
between the workstation and its peripherals. Your workstation and any peripherals you
purchase from Silicon Graphics have shielded cables. Shielded cables reduce the
possibility of interference with radio, television, and other devices. If you use any cables
that are not from Silicon Graphics, make sure they are shielded. Telephone cables do not
need to be shielded.
Electrostatic Discharge
Silicon Graphics designs and tests its products to be immune to the effects of electrostatic
discharge (ESD). ESD is a source of electromagnetic interference and can cause problems
ranging from data errors and lockups to permanent component damage.
It is important that while you are operating your workstation you keep all the covers and
doors, including the plastics, in place. The shielded cables that came with the
workstation and its peripherals should be installed correctly, with all thumbscrews
fastened securely.
An ESD wrist strap is included with some products, such as memory and graphics
upgrades. The wrist strap is used when installing these upgrades to prevent the flow of
static electricity, and it should protect your system from ESD damage.
