Tools Required
The customer-provided tools required for the hardware installation of the NetVanta are:
•
Ethernet cables

Network cables (module-dependent)
•
DSX-1 cable (T1/FT1 + DSX-1 module only)
•
DBU cable (dial backup functions require an optional DIM)
•

To prevent electrical shock, do not install equipment in a wet location or during a
lightning storm.
Electronic modules can be damaged by static electrical discharge. Before handling
modules, put on an antistatic discharge wrist strap to prevent damage to electrical
components. Place modules in antistatic packing material when transporting or storing.
When working on modules, always place them on an approved antistatic mat that is
electrically grounded.
To access the command line interface (CLI) of the NetVanta, you will also need a VT100
terminal or PC with terminal emulation software and a console port cable. Instructions on
how to access the CLI are given in the Command Reference Guide (provided on the
ADTRAN OS Documentation CD).
