__ antistatic wriststrap or static-dissipating floor mat. If a static-dissipating
floor mat is used, the proper electrostatic discharge (ESD) footwear

Warning:
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) may damage sensitive electronic components
resulting in a traffic-affecting condition. Ensure that plug-in modules are stored
in static preventive material. Do not touch any components on the modules.
Handle modules by the edges or front panel. Always wear a properly grounded
wrist strap when handling, removing, or inserting a module and when touching
the equipment shelves or cables. ESD protective flooring, used with proper ESD
footwear, may be used as an alternative to a wrist strap. ESD wrist straps and
footwear should be checked daily to verify performance.
Warning:
Failure to disable the laser source of the fiber to be examined and disconnect the
optical path from all relevant optical modules can result in equipment damage.
The laser can burn components of the cleaning solutions and cause build-up of
contaminants.
