Installation Guide

Warnings
Heed safety instructions: Before working with your server product, whether you are using this
guide or any other resource as a reference, pay close attention to the safety instructions. You
must adhere to the assembly instructions in this guide to ensure and maintain compliance with
existing product certifications and approvals. Use only the described, regulated components
specified in this guide. Use of other products / components will void the UL listing and other
regulatory approvals of the product and will most likely result in noncompliance with product
regulations in the region(s) in which the product is sold.
System power on/off: The power button DOES NOT turn off the system AC power. To
remove power from system, you must unplug the AC power cord from the wall outlet. Make
sure the AC power cord is unplugged before you open the chassis, add, or remove any
components.
Hazardous conditions, devices and cables: Hazardous electrical conditions may be present on
power, telephone, and communication cables. Turn off the server and disconnect the power
cord, telecommunications systems, networks, and modems attached to the server before opening
it. Otherwise, personal injury or equipment damage can result.
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) and ESD protection: ESD can damage disk drives, boards, and
other parts. We recommend that you perform all procedures in this chapter only at an ESD
workstation. If one is not available, provide some ESD protection by wearing an antistatic wrist
strap attached to chassis ground any unpainted metal surface on your server when handling
parts.
ESD and handling boards: Always handle boards carefully. They can be extremely sensitive
to ESD. Hold boards only by their edges. After removing a board from its protective wrapper or
from the server, place the board component side up on a grounded, static free surface. Use a
conductive foam pad if available but not the board wrapper. Do not slide board over any surface.
Installing or removing jumpers: A jumper is a small plastic encased conductor that slips over
two jumper pins. Some jumpers have a small tab on top that you can grip with your fingertips or
with a pair of fine needle nosed pliers. If your jumpers do not have such a tab, take care when
using needle nosed pliers to remove or install a jumper; grip the narrow sides of the jumper with
the pliers, never the wide sides. Gripping the wide sides can damage the contacts inside the
jumper, causing intermittent problems with the function controlled by that jumper. Take care to
grip with, but not squeeze, the pliers or other tool you use to remove a jumper, or you may bend
or break the pins on the board.
