Precautionary Procedures
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage static-sensitive devices on circuit boards. Follow these precautions when you handle the 10BASE-FL Module:
❑Do not remove the board from its anti-static shielding bag until you are ready to inspect it.
❑Handle the board by the faceplate only.
❑Use proper grounding techniques when you install the 10BASE-FL Module. These techniques include:
–Using a foot strap and grounded mat or wearing a grounded static discharge wrist strap.
–Touching the grounded rack or other source of ground just before you handle the 10BASE-FL Module.
Unpacking Procedures
When unpacking your 10BASE-FL Module:
1.Verify that the 10BASE-FL Module is the correct model by matching the model number listed on the side of the shipping carton to the model number you ordered (Model Number 5104M-FL1).
Note that the product model number printed on the shipping box differs from the model number on the product. The model number on the shipping box contains the prefix ’3C9’.
2.Remove the 10BASE-FL Module from the shipping carton.
3.Remove the 10BASE-FL Module from the anti-static shielding bag and inspect the module for damage. If the module appears to be damaged, replace it in the anti-static shielding bag, return it to the shipping carton, and contact your local supplier.
