Handling Static-Sensitive Devices
Attention: Static electricity can damage the switch and other electronic devices. To avoid damage,
keep static-sensitive devices in their static-protective packages until you are ready to install them.
To reduce the possibility of electrostatic discharge, observe the following precautions:
„
Limit your movement. Movement can cause static electricity to build up around you.
„
The use of a grounding system is recommended. For example, wear an electrostatic-discharge
wrist strap, if one is available.
„
Handle the device carefully, holding it by its edges or its frame.
„
Do not touch solder joints, pins, or exposed printed circuitry.
„
Do not leave the device where others can handle and damage it.
„
While the device is still in its static-protective package, touch it to an unpainted metal part of
any unpainted metal surface on a grounded rack component in the rack in which you are
installing the device, for at least 2 seconds. This drains static electricity from the package and
from your body.
„
Remove the device from its package and install it directly into the switch without setting it
down. If it is necessary to set down the device, put it back into its static-protective package. Do
not place the device on a switch cover or on a metal surface.
„
Take additional care when you handle devices during cold weather. Heating reduces indoor
humidity and increases static electricity.
