ESD precautions
The Brocade 6505contains electrostatic discharge (ESD) sensitive FRUs. When working with any
Brocade 6505 FRU, use correct ESD procedures.
CAUTION
Before plugging a cable into to any port, be sure to discharge the voltage stored on the cable
by touching the electrical contacts to ground surface.
CAUTION
Static electricity can damage the chassis and other electronic devices. To avoid damage, keep
static-sensitive devices in their static-protective packages until you are ready to install them.
Wear a wrist grounding strap connected to chassis ground (if the Brocade 6505 is plugged in) or a
bench ground.
DANGER
For safety reasons, the ESD wrist strap should contain a series 1 megaohm resistor.
Power precautions
To install and operate the switch successfully, ensure the following:
• The primary outlet is correctly wired, protected by a circuit breaker, and grounded in accordance
with local electrical codes.
• Connect the power cord only to a grounded outlet.
DANGER
Make sure that the power source circuits are properly grounded, then use the power cord
supplied with the device to connect it to the power source.
• The supply circuit, line fusing, and wire size are adequate, as specified by the electrical rating on
the switch nameplate.
• This switch might have more than one power cord. To reduce the risk of electric shock, disconnect
both power cords before servicing.
DANGER
Remove both power cords before servicing.
DANGER
Disconnect the power cord from all power sources to completely remove power from the
device.
• This product is designed for an IT power system with phase-to-phase voltage of 230V. After
operation of the protective device, the equipment is still under voltage if it is connected to an IT
power system.
DANGER
To avoid high voltage shock, do not open the device while the power is on.
• The power supply standards provided in
on page 46 are met.
