Rack Grounding
When you prepare your equipment rack, ensure that the rack is earth ground. You must ground the equipment rack to the same
ground point the power service uses in your area. The ground path must be permanent.
Important Points to Remember for Installing an Ethernet Module
• Installing and swapping of Ethernet modules must be done BEFORE power up. If you need to install or replace a module, power
down the system before you install or replace it. If you install or replace a module when the system is powered up, the system
does not recognize the module. Online insertion of modules can result in a catastrophic failure.
• Although the handle and port numbering may appear dierently on an Ethernet module, there is no functional dierence. A
module may have:
– A larger handle that covers the entire front of the module and has the part number written on top of the handle. Port
numbering is written on the front of the handle.
– A smaller handle that is half the size and does not cover the release button. The part number is written on the front of the
handle. Port numbering is written on the lower part of the front of the module.
WARNING: Electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage can occur if components are mishandled. Always wear an ESD-
preventive wrist or heel ground strap when handling the S5000 and its components.
NOTE: For the Ethernet module, the part name and port number are inscribed on the handle, as shown in the following
