Dell PowerConnect J-Series J-EX8216 Ethernet Switch Hardware Guide CAUTION: Do not stack line cards on top of one another or on top of any other component. Place each line card separately in the antistatic bag or on the antistatic mat placed on a flat, stable surface. CAUTION: The line cards in J-EX8200 switches weigh more than 10 lb (4.5 kg). Be prepared to accept the full weight as you slide the line card out of the chassis. 8. Place one hand around the faceplate of the line card and the other hand under the line card to support it. Taking care not to touch line card components, pins, leads, or solder connections, gently slide the line card completely out of the chassis and place it in an antistatic bag or on its own antistatic mat placed on a flat, stable surface. CAUTION: After removing a line card, wait for at least 30 seconds before installing a line card or removing another line card. 9. If you are not installing a line card in the emptied line card slot within a short time, install a blank cover panel over the slot and secure it with captive screws by using the screwdriver. Do this to protect the interior of the chassis from dust or other foreign substances and to ensure that the airflow inside the chassis is not disrupted.
