Guard against Damage from Electro-Static Discharge
CAUTION! Electro-Static Discharge (ESD) can damage electronic components. To prevent ESD damage, always wear
an ESD wrist strap when working with a Prism Remote Unit or when handling any of its
components—including the RF Modules. Connect the ground wire on the ESD wrist strap to an earth
ground source before touching the Prism Remote Unit or any of its components. Wear the wrist strap
the entire time that you work with the Prism Remote Unit and its components.
CAUTION! Place Prism RF Modules in anti-static packing material when transporting or storing them.
Unpack and Inspect the RF Module

CAUTION! Handle the RF Module with care during installation. Be especially careful to not damage the
thermal-interface material (TIM), which is attached to the LPA, DARTs, and/or Motherboard with TX/RX
boards. If the TIM is damaged, the LPA can overheat. Before installing the RF Module, check to see if the
heatsink material is gouged or cracked. If the TIM is damaged, do not install the RF Module and contact
TE Connectivity for assistance (see Dzdzͷʹ for contact information).
CAUTION! If the thermal-interface material is damaged, the installation and use of the RF Module may void the
warranty of the RF Module.
