4.4.1 Installing a GBIC Optical Port
To install a GBIC optical port, do the following:
NOTICE
Electrical hazard – risk of damage to equipment
Use only components certified by Siemens with RUGGEDCOM products. Damage
to the module and device may occur if compatibility and reliability have not been
properly assessed.
NOTICE
Electrical hazard – risk of damage to equipment
Make sure all electrostatic energy is dissipated before installing or removing
components from the device. An electrostatic discharge (ESD) can cause serious
damage to the component once it is outside the chassis.
NOTICE
Only install GBIC optical ports that are compatible with the RUGGEDCOM RSG2100.
1. Make sure all potential electrostatic build-up has been properly discharged to
prevent electrostatic discharges (ESD). This can be accomplished by wearing an
ESD-preventive wrist strap connected to either the chassis ground connector or a
bare metal surface on the router/switch.
