Installing The Connector Retaining Plates
The Flexi-Voice Plus card GDC No. 086P040-001) and Flexi-Data card (GDC Part No. 086P070-
000) uses 50-pin Amphenol cables that mate with the associated front panel connectors. A
retaining plate has to be attached to the cable connector housing to prevent the cable from coming
loose once it is attached to the front panel connector. The retaining plate and hardware are
included in the small cloth bag shipped with your Wallmount Enclosure. Ten retaining plates and
ten 4-40 screws are provided.
Using the 4-40 screw included in the kit, attach the retaining plate at the bottom of the 50-pin
cable connector housing as shown in Figure 1-4. The mating clips are already attached to the
cards front panel.

Antistatic Precautions
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) results from the buildup of static electricity and can
cause computer components to fail. Electrostatic discharge occurs when a person
whose body contains a static buildup touches a computer component.
The equipment may contain static-sensitive devices that are easily damaged;
proper handling and grounding is essential. Use ESD precautionary measures
when installing parts or cards and keep the parts and cards in antistatic packaging
when not in use. If possible, use antistatic floorpads and workbench pads.
When handling components, or when setting switch options, always use 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, such as a screwdriver or a paper clip, to
set switches.
