Safety Precautions

Before getting started, read the following important cautions.

1. Be sure to ground yourself to prevent static charge when installing the internal
components. Use a grounding wrist strap and place all electronic components in any
static-shielded devices. Most electronic components are sensitive to static electrical
charge.

2. Disconnect the power cords from the P1177 Series before making any installation. Be
sure both the system and the external devices are turned OFF. Sudden surge of power
could ruin sensitive components. Make sure the P1177 Series is properly grounded.

3. Do not open the system’s top cover. If opening the cover for maintenance is a must, only
a trained technician is allowed to do so. Integrated circuits on computer boards are
sensitive to static electricity. To avoid damaging chips from electrostatic discharge,
observe the following precautions:

 Before handling a board or integrated circuit, touch an unpainted portion of the

system unit chassis for a few seconds. This will help to discharge any static
electricity on your body.

 When handling boards and components, wear a wrist-grounding strap, available

from most electronic component stores.

2.3 Ethernet

The P1177E-871 is equipped with two high performance plug and play Ethernet interfaces
(RJ-45) which are fully compliant with the IEEE 802.3 standard. Connection can be
established by plugging one end of the Ethernet cable into this RJ-45 connector and the other
end to a 1000/100/10-Base-T hub.
The Universal Serial Bus (compliant with USB 3.0 (5Gb/s)) connectors on the rear I/O are for
installing USB peripherals such as keyboard, mouse, scanner, etc. Note that the CN10 carries
LAN1, USB 3.0 port 2 and 3 signals while CN11 carries LAN2, USB 3.0 port 0 and 1 signals
