Procedures
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage static-sensitive devices on circuit
boards. Follow these precautions when you handle an Edge Router module:
CAUTION
: Do not remove the product from any antistatic wrapping until
you are ready to inspect or install the module.
Handle Edge Router modules by the faceplate only.
CAUTION:
To avoid damaging the Edge Router module with ESD, use proper
grounding techniques. Before unpacking, you should:
■
Use a foot strap and grounded mat, or wear a grounded static discharge
wrist strap.
■
Touch a grounded source just before you remove the Edge Router module
from the shipping carton.
