Site Requirements

This section provides site requirements for the CDEs. You should verify the site power prior to installing the CDEs.

Preventing Electrostatic Discharge Damage

The CDEs have no user-serviceable parts inside their chassis. The only field-replaceable units are the AC and DC power supplies and hard disk drives.

Warning No user-serviceable parts inside. Do not open. Statement 1073

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage, which can occur when disk drives, electronic cards or components are improperly handled, results in complete or intermittent failures. The following are guidelines for preventing ESD damage:

•Always use an ESD wrist or ankle strap and ensure that it makes good skin contact.

•Connect the equipment end of the strap to a bare metal, unpainted surface on the rackmount.
