Installing the opacity shields
The methods for installing the opacity shields to the applicable products are the same.
This section uses an HP 5120-24G EI Switch with 2 Interface Slots as an example.
Only use the screws and hex bolts that are supplied in the opacity shield kit to secure the
opacity shield.
Remove the screws, if any, on the chassis where the opacity shields are to be installed
before installing the opacity shields.
Preparing for installation
The installation procedures must be performed by qualified personnel.
Before installation, read the Compliance and Safety Manual for the compatible switch of
the opacity shield kit.
Make sure the operating temperature is not higher than 40°C (104°F).
Wear an ESD-preventive wrist strap, and make sure the wrist strap makes good skin
contact and is well grounded.
HP recommends that you install the front mounting brackets before installing the opacity shields.
