Do not stack line cards on top of one another or on top of any other
component. Place each line card separately in an antistatic bag or on an
antistatic mat placed on a flat, stable surface.
Storing a Line Card
You must store a line card in the chassis or in a spare shipping container, horizontally and
sheet metal side down. Do not stack line cards on top of one another or on top of any
other component. Place each line card separately in an antistatic bag or on an antistatic
mat placed on a flat, stable surface.
NOTE: Because a line card is heavy, and because antistatic bags are fragile,
inserting the line card into the bag is best done with two people, each to do
one of the following steps.
To insert a line card into an antistatic bag:
1.
Hold the line card in the horizontal position with the faceplate facing you.
2.
Slide the opening of the bag over the line card connector edge.
If you must insert the line card into a bag by yourself:
1.
Lay the line card horizontally on a flat, stable surface, sheet metal side down.
2.
Orient the line card with the faceplate facing you.
3.
Carefully insert the line card connector edge into the opening of the bag and pull the
bag toward you to cover the line card.

Maintaining Line Card Cables in EX9200 Switches
Components in the line cards are fragile. To extend the lives of your line card cables and
to avoid problems that can result from cable damage, follow these procedures:
To maintain line card cables in switches:
•
Place excess cable out of the way. Do not allow fastened loops of cable to dangle
from the connector. Placing fasteners on the loops helps retain their shape.
