Protecting Against Electro-static Discharge
Electro-Static Discharge (ESD) can cause serious damage to sensitive components on the chassis, its sub-components,
and/or the cards installed in the chassis. To prevent damage from ESD, you must take proper grounding precautions
before handling the chassis or any of its components.
To aid in the prevention of ESD damage, the chassis and its mounting brackets are equipped with ESD jacks. Use the
jacks in conjunction with grounding wrist straps when handling the chassis and/or its components. The following figure
shows the location of the jacks.
Important: Before using the ESD jacks on the chassis and its mounting brackets to provide protection, you must
first connect the chassis to earth ground as described in the Chassis Installation chapter of this document.
