You can also take the following steps to prevent damage from electrostatic discharge
(ESD):
•
When unpacking a static-sensitive component from its shipping carton, leave it in
the antistatic package until you are ready to install it. Just before unwrapping the
antistatic package, discharge static electricity from your body.
•
Before moving a sensitive component, place it in an antistatic container or package.
•
Handle all sensitive components in a static-safe area. If possible, use antistatic floor
pads, workbench pads, and an antistatic grounding strap.
Step 3: Unpack the switch
The following figure shows the package contents.
Figure 8. Switch package contents
Check the contents of the boxes to make sure that all items are present before installing
the switch.
To check the package contents:
1. Place the container on a clean flat surface, and cut all straps securing the container.
2. Unpack the hardware from the boxes by carefully removing the hardware and placing
it on a secure and clean surface.
3. Remove all packing material.
