General Safety
● Always take precautions against ESD whenever you handle a device. For
example, wear ESD gloves or an ESD wrist strap. To avoid electric shock or
burn, remove conductive objects like jewelry and watch.
● Connect the ground cable
rst after installing the device into a cabinet or rack.
Do not remove the ground cable unless all the other cables and modules have
been removed from the device.
● During device transport and installation, prevent the device from colliding with
objects like doors, walls, or shelves.
● Move an unpacked device upright gently to avoid damages to the device. Do
not lay down the unpacked device and drag it.
● Do not touch unpainted surfaces of the device with wet or contaminated
gloves.
● Do not open the ESD bags of cards and modules until they are delivered to the

connector to support the card's weight because this operation will distort the
connector and make the pins on the backplane connector bend.
