ESD WARNINGS
ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGES (ESD)
A sudden electrostatic discharge can destroy sensitive components. Proper packaging and grounding rules must therefore be
observed. Always take the following precautions:
1. Transport boards and cards in electrostatically secure containers or bags.
2. Keep electrostatically sensitive components in their containers, until they arrive at an electrostatically protected workplace.
3. Only touch electrostatically sensitive components when you are properly grounded.
4. Store electrostatically sensitive components in protective packaging or on anti-static mats.
GROUNDING METHODS
The following measures help to avoid electrostatic damages to the device:
5. Cover workstations with approved antistatic material. Always wear a wrist strap connected to a properly grounded workplace.
6. Use antistatic mats, heel straps, and/or air ionizers for more protection.
7. Always handle electrostatically sensitive components by their edge or by their casing.
8. Avoid contact with pins, leads, or circuitry.
9. Turn off power and input signals before inserting and removing connectors or connecting test equipment.
10. Keep your work area free of non-conductive materials, such as ordinary plastic assembly aids and Styrofoam.
11. Use field service tools such as cutters, screwdrivers, and vacuum cleaners that are conductive.

CHAPTER 3: HARDWARE INSTALLATION
The following instructions apply to installing the Network Interface Adapter PCIe in most systems. Refer to the manuals that were
supplied with your system for details about performing these tasks on your particular system.
To install the network adapter card, perform the following procedure:
WARNING: Before installing the adapter, make sure the system power is OFF and unplugged from the power outlet, and that you
have followed proper electrical grounding procedures.
1. High voltage inside the system presents a safety hazard. Make sure the power is off before removing the cover.
2. Remove the system cover and select any empty PCIe slot. See Fig 3-1.
NOTE: If you do not know how to identify a PCIe slot, refer to your system documentation.
FIGURE 3-1. REMOVE THE SYSTEM’S COVER
3. Select an empty, non-shared PCIe slot and remove the faceplate. Keep the faceplate in a safe place. You may need it for future
use.
