product you are working on, such as the shelf ESD jack. Grounded fixtures are
accessible on most Ciena products. See the ESD ground jacks shown in
Figure 1-3.
The following guidelines provide optimal electrostatic discharge protection:
• Install bays on conductive floor coverings.
• Provide conductive shoes, antistatic wrist-straps, and heel grounders to all
personnel working on the equipment.
• Maintain local environmental conditions so that relative humidity around
equipment to be serviced is in excess of 20% (preferably higher than
40%). This lowers the threat of developing damaging electrostatic levels.
• You can implement an ESD training and control program that educates
personnel on the hazards of ESD and simple mitigation procedures that
can easily be applied.
