Handling Equipment Precautions and Guidelines
Handling Modules
When handling a module, observe the following guidelines:
l Handle all modules as electrostatic sensitive devices, unless you are sure the module
concerned does not contain electrostatic discharge sensitive components.
l Do not remove a module from its static-protective package until you are ready to install
it.
l Hold a module at its edges or faceplate only. Avoid touching the electronic
components or any exposed printed circuitry.
l Do not touch connector pins or PCB exposed printed circuitry.
l Always place modules with the Printed Circuit Board (PCB) assembly-side down.
l When pulling and inserting modules, use the thumbscrews on the faceplate.
l Transport or store a module (even temporarily) in its original static-protective package
and shipping box.
l Do not use brushes with synthetic bristles or acid brushes to clean a module.
l Be careful when removing hot components from the shelf. The temperature of an
operational module or pluggable transceiver module may exceed 60°C (140°F) and be
too hot to touch with bare hands. Touching a very hot component may cause minor
skin burns (only valid if operated above 60°C/140°F ambient temperature).
SKIN BURN CAUTION
Hot Surface!
Module components get hot during operation. Hot components can burn
skin. Allow a module to cool before removing it from a shelf or placing it in
a static-protective package.
l The connector receptacles of the optical ports (integrated inter-faces) are equipped
with dust covers on delivery to prevent impurities. Always keep the dust covers in the
receptacles as long as the module is not installed in a running system, fiber-optic
cables are not plugged in, or pluggable transceivers are not installed.
l Do not install a module that has been dropped or damaged.
l Do not dispose of a waste module with the normal trash because of it is an electronic
product.
