Caution Static electricity can severely damage the sensitive electronic components on
the HP AdvanceStack Switch 100Base-T Module. When handling and installing
the module in your switch, follow these procedures to avoid damage from
static electricity:
■ Handle the module by its edges and avoid touching the components and
the circuitry on the board.
■ Equalize any static charge difference between your body and the switch
by wearing a grounding wrist strap and attaching it to the switch’s metal
body, or by continually touching the switch’s metal body while you are
installing the module.
For proper cooling and reduction of electromagnetic emissions, ensure that
a slot cover is installed on any unused switch module slot or transceiver slot.
1. Slide out the blank LED label strip from the label slot on the switch’s brow
corresponding to the physical slot in which you will install the module.
