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.
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 figure:
