Site Requirements
This section provides site power requirements for the Cisco SCE 8000 chassis. Verify the site power
before installation:
• Preventing Electrostatic Discharge Damage, page 4-3
• Environmental Requirements, page 4-4
• Power Requirements, page 4-5
Preventing Electrostatic Discharge Damage
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage, which can occur when electronic cards or components are
improperly handled, results in complete or intermittent failures. Port adapters and blades consist of
printed circuit boards that are fixed in metal carriers. Electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding and
connectors are integral components of the carrier. Although the metal carrier helps to protect the board
from ESD, use a preventive antistatic strap during handling.
Following are guidelines for preventing ESD damage:
• Always use an ESD wrist or ankle strap and ensure that it makes good skin contact.
• Connect the equipment end of the strap to an unfinished chassis surface.
