Preventing Electrostatic Discharge Damage

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) damages equipment and impairs electrical circuitry. ESD occurs when printed circuit cards are improperly handled and results in complete or intermittent failure.

The system feature cards and dial shelf controller cards consist of a printed circuit card that is fixed in a metal carrier. Electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding, connectors, and ejector levers are integral components of the carrier. Handle cards by their carrier edges or ejector levers only; never touch the printed circuitry, card components, or connector pins.

Although the metal carrier helps to protect the printed circuitry from ESD, you should wear a preventive antistatic strap whenever handling the feature cards or dial shelf controller cards. Ensure that the strap makes good skin contact and connect the strap's clip to an unpainted chassis surface to safely channel unwanted ESD voltages to ground.

If no wrist strap is available, ground yourself by touching the metal part of the chassis.

Following are guidelines for preventing ESD damage:

Always use an ESD wrist strap or ankle strap when installing or replacing modem cards. Ensure that the ESD strap makes contact with your skin.

Handle all system components by their metal carrier edges and ejector levers only; avoid touching the printed circuitry, card components, or any connector pins.

Place all system components that have been removed on an antistatic surface with the printed circuit card components facing upward or in a static shielding bag. If you are returning a feature card to the factory, immediately place it in a static shielding bag.


Caution Periodically check the resistance value of the antistatic strap. The measurement should be within the range of 1 to 10 megohm.

Safety Guidelines

This section provides safety and ESD-prevention guidelines to help you avoid injury to yourself and avoid damage to the equipment. We recommend the following safety guidelines when working with any equipment that connects to electrical power or telephone wiring:

Locate the emergency power Off switch for the room in which you are working before beginning any procedures requiring access to the chassis interior.

Never work alone if potentially hazardous conditions exist.

Never assume that power has been disconnected from a circuit; always check.

Never perform any action that creates a potential hazard to people or makes the equipment unsafe.

Carefully examine your work area for possible hazards such as moist floors, ungrounded power extension cables, and missing safety grounds.

Telephone Wiring Guidelines

Cisco recommends the following guidelines when working with any equipment that is connected to telephone wiring or to other network cabling:

Never install telephone wiring during a lightning storm.

Never install telephone jacks in wet locations unless the jack is specifically designed for wet locations.

Never touch uninsulated telephone wires or terminals unless the telephone line has been disconnected at the network interface.

Always use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.
