Enterasys Networks A2H124-24P, A2H124-48P manual Preparation

Installing Optional Mini-GBICs

Caution: Carefully follow the instructions in this manual to avoid damaging the Mini-GBIC and the device.

The Mini-GBIC and the device are sensitive to static discharges. Use an antistatic wrist strap and observe all static precautions during this procedure. Failure to do so could result in damage to the Mini-GBIC or the switch. Always leave the Mini-GBIC in the antistatic bag or an equivalent antistatic container when not installed.

Precaución: Siga las instrucciones del manual para no dañar el Mini-GBIC ni del aparato, puesto que son muy sensible a las descargas de electricidad estática. Utilice la pulsera antiestática y tome todas las precauciones necesarias durante este procedimiento. Si no lo hace, podría dañar el Mini-GBIC o del aparato. Mientras no esté instalado, mantenga el Mini-GBIC en su bolsa antiestática o en cualquier otro recipiente antiestático.

Preparation

Before installing the Mini‐GBIC, proceed as follows:

1.Before removing the Mini‐GBIC from the antistatic packaging, it is recommended that you use an antistatic wrist strap (not supplied) to prevent damage from static discharge. To use the wrist strap, refer to the instructions provided with your antistatic wrist strap.

2.Remove the Mini‐GBIC from its packaging.

3.If there is a protective dust cover in the Mini‐GBIC connector, do not remove it at this time.
