Installing FRUs
As a best practice, connect power cords after installing all required FRUs. To ensure good ventilation,
install filler panels on unused slots.
Long-time exposure to strong air flow might cause discomfort. To avoid this hazard, do not stand
close to the air outlet vents while the switch is operating. If you must be next to the switch on the air
outlet vent side for an extended period, avoid the air flow or take other protective measures.
TIP:
Keep the chassis and the component packages for future use.
Attaching an ESD wrist strap
An S12501X-AF switch does not have an ESD jack and no ESD wrist strap is provided with it.
Prepare an ESD wrist strap for the switch yourself and ground the strap reliably.
The other S12500X-AF switch models each are provided with an ESD wrist strap. To minimize ESD
damage to electronic components, wear the ESD wrist strap and make sure it is reliably grounded
before you install FRUs.
To attach an ESD wrist strap:
1.
Make sure the switch is reliably grounded. For information about how to ground your switch,
see "Installing the switch."
2.
Put on the wrist strap.
3.
Tighten the wrist strap to make sure it makes good skin contact. Make sure the resistance
reading between your body and the ground is between 1 and 10 megohms.
4.
As shown in
, insert the ESD wrist strap into the ESD jack on the chassis.
