Hardware replacement
The information in this section is intended only for qualified service personnel. Because
some of these procedures may cause exposure to hazardous voltages that could result in
personal injury or death, service personnel must wear personal protective equipment (PPE)
suitable for voltages greater than 40 V AC. Do not attempt to perform these procedures
unless you are qualified to do so.
This section contains information about removal and installation of system cabinet components, and
instructions for replacing components determined to be faulty.
Handling and cleaning precautions
Always grasp cards by the side edges and shields to avoid contamination, which will degrade the
performance of the components. Do not touch the connectors, the board surfaces, or components.
On plugs and receptacles, do not touch areas adjacent to the electrical contacts.
Take care when handling or servicing to prevent possible contamination in high-impedance areas,
which could degrade performance. Take the following precautions when servicing any system
component:
Do not store or operate the system in an environment where dust could settle on the components.
Use dry nitrogen gas to clean dust off the components, if necessary.
Handle cards only by the side edges and shields.
Do not touch any board surfaces, components, or connectors.
Do not touch areas adjacent to electrical contacts.
Wear clean cotton gloves when servicing any component.
