3Installing the UCH
After the cables are installed in the UCH, perform the following steps to prevent ESD damage to the line card.
Note Before proceeding, remove the protective sticker covering the line card DS ports.
Step 1 Make sure that you are grounded using an
Step 2 Attach a jumper cable to the ground point on the chassis.
Step 3 Briefly touch each cable’s center connector with the jumper cable to remove any
Step 4 Position the UCH2 so the red line is on the same side as the red triangle on the faceplate.

Step 5 Align the end pins with the pin holes in the faceplate, and guide the UCH onto the faceplate.
Step 6 Hold the cables and UCH in place while finger tightening the leadscrew. Do not bend the cables at right angles.

Step 2 Loosen the lead screw (counterclockwise) until it disengages from the faceplate.
Step 3 Gently pull the UCH straight away from the faceplate.
Note If the UCH does not easily pull away from the card, loosen the lead screw until it completely disengages from the faceplate.

5Removing the Cables
Step 1 Use the
Step 2 Slide the lock bar open by hand, or with a flathead screwdriver if the bar is stuck or hard to access. See Figure 5.
(Make sure the lock bar is completely open or the cables will not release.)
Caution Be careful not to bend the cables.
Step 3 Carefully pull the cable out of the hole.

6Troubleshooting
Check the following:
1.Verify that the lead screw is tight.
2.Verify that the shroud fits snugly against the faceplate (the cutouts are closed).
3.Verify that the cables are properly seated and secure in the UCH.
If downstream RF power measurements are made, use these ESD precautions to prevent damage to the product:
1.Check for a proper ground on the equipment and chassis before connecting any cables.
2.Ensure that there is a common ground between all the test equipment that you are using and the unit under test.
3.Keep test cables as short as possible to limit static buildup.
4.Before attaching any test cables to the unit under test, momentarily ground the center pin of the test cable to remove any ESD potential that may be present.
