Safety information
To avoid bodily injury or damage to the module, read the following information carefully before you
operate the module. In practice, safety information includes but is not limited to what are mentioned
in this document.
General operating safety
To avoid bodily injury or damage to the module, follow these guidelines when you operate the
module:
•
Only H3C authorized or professional engineers are allowed to install, service, repair, operate, or
upgrade the module.
•
Place the module on a clean, stable table or floor for servicing.
•
Keep the module clean and dust-free, and do not place the module in a wet environment or let
liquid flow into the module.
•
When using tools for servicing, be sure to follow the operation instructions.
•
Before powering on the module, make sure the server is grounded reliably.
•
Make sure that you move or place the module evenly and slowly.
•
To avoid being burnt, allow the module and its internal modules to cool before touching them.
•
For adequate heat dissipation of the server, install a filler panel in the slot if the module is not
installed.
Electrical safety
To avoid bodily injury or damage to the module, follow these guidelines:
•
Verify whether the operation area has potential risks carefully, such as an ungrounded chassis,
unreliable grounding, or wet floor.
•
Do not work alone when you service the module with power present.
•
To avoid electric shocks, do not touch the power supply directly or indirectly through conductive
objects.
Laser safety
WARNING!
Disconnected optical fibers or transceiver modules might emit invisible laser light. Do not stare into
beams or view directly with optical instruments when the module is operating
ESD prevention
Electrostatic charges that build up on people and tools might damage or shorten the lifespan of the
system board and electrostatic-sensitive components.
Preventing electrostatic discharge
To prevent electrostatic damage, follow these guidelines:
•
Transport or store the module in an antistatic bag.
