Electrostatic Discharge (ESD)

Attention:
When you handle field-replaceable units (FRUs) and other computer parts, take these precautions to avoid static damage:
v Limit your movement. Movement can cause static electricity to build up
around you.
v Always touch computer parts carefully. Hold adapters and
memory-modules by their edges. Never touch any exposed circuits.
v Prevent people who are not correctly grounded from touching computer
parts.
v Before you install a new part, touch the static-protective package that
contains the part against an unpainted metal part of the 2104 or using system for at least two seconds. This action reduces static electricity in the package and in your body.
v Remove the part from its package and, if possible, install it directly into the
2104 without putting the part down. If you need to put the part down, first place the static-protective package that contained the part onto a smooth, level surface, then place the part onto the package. Do not place the part onto any metal surface.

power cables for the 2104 have not been installed.
v Go to “Connecting the 2104 to the Using System” on page 31 if the power cables
for the 2104 have been installed.
Notes:
1. Each rack-mounted 2104 requires an airflow of 1.1 m³ per minute (40 ft³ per
minute). When racks containing many 2104s are to be installed together, the following requirements must be met to ensure that the 2104s are adequately cooled:
v The airflow enters at the front of the rack and leaves at the back. To prevent
the air that is leaving the rack from entering the intake of another piece of equipment, racks should be positioned in alternate rows, back-to-back and front-to-front.
v The front of racks should be positioned on floor-tile seams, with a full line of
perforated tiles immediately in front of the racks. Each perforated tile should have an air flow of at least 11.34 m³ per minute (400 ft³ per minute). The underfloor temperature must not exceed 15°C (60°F).
v Where racks are in rows front-to-front or back-to-back, there should be a gap
of at least 1220 mm (48 in) separating the rows.
v To ensure correct air flow within each rack, the rack filler plates must be
installed in unused positions. Also, all the gaps in the front of the racks must be sealed, including the gaps between the 2104s.
