The use of Infortrend certified components is strongly recommended to ensure compatibility, quality and normal operation with your Infortrend products. Please contact your distributor for a list of Infortrend certified components (eg. SFP, SFP+, HBA card, iSCSI cable, FC cable, memory module, etc.).
Service and Maintenance Service and Maintenance Keep the faulty module in place until you have a replacement unit in hand; an empty module greatly affects the efficiency of the airflow within the enclosure. During service operation, place the enclosure on soft and clean surface to prevent damaging its exterior.
ESD Precautions ESD Precautions Handle the modules by their retention screws, ejector levers, or the module’s metal frame/faceplate only. Avoid touching the PCB boards or connector pins. Use a grounded wrist strap and an anti-static work pad to discharge static electricity when installing or operating the enclosure.
