Observe Special Handling Requirements
Be careful when handling electronic components
•
This product contains static sensitive components.
•
Handle the modules by their faceplates only, do not touch the circuit boards or components.
•
Follow proper electrostatic discharge procedures.
This contains components that may be damaged by static electricity. When transporting modules, carry it in an ESD safe
container such as the antistatic bag provided with the module. Before installing or replacing modules, discharge yourself of
static electricity by physical bodily contact with earth ground. When handling modules, hold by the faceplate only and avoid
touching circuitry. Failure to follow ESD precautions may cause serious damage to the modules and prevent proper
operation.
Guidelines for handling terminated fiber cable
•
Do not bend fiber cable sharply. Use gradual and smooth bends to avoid damaging glass fiber.
•
Keep dust caps on fiber optic connectors at all times when disconnected.
•
Do not remove dust caps from unused fiber.
•
Keep fiber ends and fiber connectors clean and free from dust, dirt and debris. Contamination will cause signal
loss.
•
Do not touch fiber ends.
•
Store excess fiber on housing spools or fiber spools at site
