Handling safety
CAUTION:
• When moving the switch, hold the handles at both sides of the chassis.
• Do not hold the handle of the fan assembly, power supply, or back cover of the chassis, or the air vents
of chassis. Any attempt to move the switch with these parts might cause equipment dama
bodily injury.
When you move an HP 7500 switch, follow these guidelines:
• Remove all external cables, including the power cords, before moving the chassis.
• Moving the chassis requires at least two persons, and you can use a mechanical lift as needed.
• Lift and put down the chassis slowly and never move suddenly.
ESD prevention
To prevent electric components from being damaged by electrostatic discharge (ESD), follow these
guidelines:
• Ground the switch correctly. For how to ground your switch, see "Installing the switch."
• A
lways wear an ESD wrist strap and make sure it is well grounded when installing FRUs. For how
to use an ESD wrist strap, see "Installing FRUs."
• Hold a P
CB by its edges. Do not touch any electronic components or printed circuit.
• Put cards away in ESD bags for future use.
Laser safety
ARNING!
Do not stare into any fiber port when the switch has power. The laser li
ht emitted from the optical fiber
might hurt your eyes.
The 7500 switches are class 1 laser products.
Examining the installation site
The 7500 switches must be used indoors. To ensure normal operation and long service life of your switch,
the installation site must meet the requirements in this section.
Floor loading
Make sure the floor can support the total weight of the rack, chassis, cards, power supplies, and all other
components. Additionally, the floor loading plan must also consider system expansion, such as adding
more cards.
