CARD HANDLING GUIDELINES
•
Use ESD protection as appropriate. Ensure unit is powered down when removing or installing cards, as the
system is not “hot swappable”.
•
Unscrew both captured front panel screws, but leave a few threads on upper screw to prevent “popping out”.
•
Pull on card until backplane connector unmates. Undo the upper screw completely and withdraw the card
slowly, especially if it is an optical card or adjacent to the FMB to avoid snagging fibers.
•
Do not subject fibers to excessive bends, even momentarily.
•
Ensure any re-mated optical connectors are cleaned immediately prior to remating. (Even clean connectors will
accumulate dirt if left uncovered.)
•
Transport cards in ESD safe bags or boxes.
•
Ensure AIB plug-in modules are installed with their alignment dots matching the dots on the AIB motherboard.
