Hazardous conditions, devices and cables:
Hazardous electrical conditions may be
present on power, telephone, and communication cables. Turn off the server and disconnect
the power cord, telecommunications systems, networks, and modems attached to the server
before opening it. Otherwise, personal injury or equipment damage can result.
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) and ESD protection:
ESD can damage disk drives, boards,
and other parts. We recommend that you perform all procedures in this chapter only at an
ESD workstation. If one is not available, provide some ESD protection by wearing an
antistatic wrist strap attached to chassis ground
any unpainted metal surface
on your
server when handling parts.
ESD and handling boards:
Always handle boards carefully. They can be extremely
sensitive to ESD. Hold boards only by their edges. After removing a board from its protective
wrapper or from the server, place the board component side up on a grounded, static free
surface. Use a conductive foam pad if available but not the board wrapper. Do not slide
board over any surface.
Installing or removing jumpers:
A jumper is a small plastic encased conductor that slips
over two jumper pins. Some jumpers have a small tab on top that you can grip with your
fingertips or with a pair of fine needle nosed pliers. If your jumpers do not have such a tab,

sides of the jumper with the pliers, never the wide sides. Gripping the wide sides can
