Warnings and Notes
Dangers:
• Electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage can occur if 7705 SAR-8 components are
mishandled. Always wear an ESD-preventive wrist or ankle strap connected to a nearby
ground point that is connected to a site grounding point (typically, the grounding stud on
the 7705 SAR-8, or a properly grounded rack or work bench).
• Invisible laser radiation can be emitted from the aperture ports of an adapter card when
no cable is connected. Avoid exposure and do not stare into open apertures.
Warnings:
• Always place components on an anti-static surface.
• Do not power up a 7705 SAR-8 before verifying that all common equipment (chassis,
power, cooling, and grounding) is connected properly and that the fan module and all
cards in the chassis have the same voltage type.
• Use only approved small form-factor pluggable (SFP) fiber-optic devices in adapter card
SFP ports.
• Filler plates are required on all empty slots to prevent excess dust accumulation and to
help control airflow and electromagnetic interference.
Notes:
• Ports cannot be configured if the adapter card is not provisioned.
• Services cannot be configured if ports are not configured.
• Adapter card slots are numbered MDA 1 through 6.
• Adapter cards and their slots are identified on the CLI as mda slots.
• When you remove an adapter card, always use the ejector levers to ensure that the
connector pins disconnect from the backplane.
