Removing cables from the switch
Before repackaging the switch, remove all cables such as the power cord, console cable, twisted pair,
optical fiber, and grounding cable from the switch.
Removing the power cord
To remove a power cord:
1. Prepare the packing bag of the power cord. Make sure the bag is clean, dry, and not damaged.
2. Switch off the circuit breakers at the input end of all power cords.
3. Wear an ESD wrist strap, and make sure it has a good skin contact and is reliably grounded.
For more information, see "Installing FRUs."
