Preventing Electrostatic Discharge Damage
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage equipment and impair electrical circuitry. ESD occurs when
electronic components are improperly handled; it can result in complete or intermittent failures.
Always follow ESD-prevention procedures when removing and replacing components.
• Ensure that the chassis is electrically connected to earth ground.
• Wear an ESD-preventive wrist strap, ensuring that it makes good skin contact.
• Connect the clip to the ESD-strap connection jack (to the left of the power switch on the rear of the
chassis) or to an unpainted chassis frame surface.
For safety, periodically check the resistance value of the antistatic strap, which should be between 1 and 10
megohm (Mohm).
Caution
Unpacking and Inspection
Do not unpack the Cisco VG400 until you are ready to install it. If the installation site is not ready, keep the
chassis in its shipping container to prevent accidental damage.
The Cisco VG400, cables, printed publications, and any optional equipment you ordered might be shipped in
more than one container. When you unpack each shipping container, check the packing list to ensure that you
received all the following items:
• Cisco VG400 Voice Gateway
• Power cord (Auto expland via PDT)
• RJ-45-to-DB-25 adapter cable (labeled Console) - choose an option for this cable, or by default, the auto
expand option is delivered
• RJ-45-to-DB-9 adapter cable (labeled Auxiliary) - choose an option for this cable, or by default, the auto
expand option is delivered
• Rack-mounting - place an order through the ordering tool
Inspect all the items for shipping damage. If anything appears damaged, or if you encounter problems when
installing or configuring your system, contaca customer service representative.
