Electrostatic Discharge

Your system must be protected from static electricity or electrostatic discharge (ESD). Take the following
measures to ensure optimum system performance:

Remove materials that can cause electrostatic generation (such as synthetic resins) from the wiring
closet. Check the appropriateness of floor mats and flooring.

Connect metal chassis, conduit, and other metals to ground using dedicated grounding lines.

Use electrostatically safe equipment and the ESD-preventive wrist strap that is provided with your
equipment. All switches come with ESD-preventive wrist strap connectors and an ESD-preventive
wrist strap as shown in
