To guard against electrostatic discharge damage, we construct, test, and
pack our products in a static-safe environment. We ship products that
require individual protection in bags that are sealed and shielded from
damage. Equipment that is not packed in a static-shielded bag is
adequately protected as long as you keep it assembled.
When you remove a product from a static-shielded bag or disassemble a
product, do it in a static-safe environment. We recommend the 3M

Type
8005 Portable Field Service Grounding kit or the equivalent for providing
a static-safe environment.
ATTENTION: To avoid damaging the module with
electrostatic discharge:
Wear an approved wrist-strap grounding device or touch a
grounded object to discharge yourself before
handling any equipment. (Note that the wrist
strap is not supplied with the module.)
Do not touch backplane connectors or
connector pins.
If you configure or replace internal components,
do not touch other circuit components inside the module.
When not in use, keep components in a static-shielded bag.
