Preventing Electrostatic Discharge
The Multi-Vendor Interface module is sensitive to electrostatic
discharge.
This module is sensitive to electrostatic discharge.
Electrostatic discharge can damage integrated
circuits or semiconductors if you touch backplane
connector pins. Follow these guidelines when you
handle the module:
• Touch a grounded object to discharge static
potential.
• Wear an approved wrist-strap grounding device.
• Do not touch the backplane connector or
connector pins.
• Do not touch circuit components inside the
module.
• If available, use a static-safe work station.
• When not in use, keep the module in its
static-shield bag.
