  • Page 6: General Precautions

    Safety Guidelines General Precautions Observe the following general precautions for using and working with your system: Observe and follow service markings. Do not service any Cisco product except as explained in your • system documentation. Opening or removing covers that are marked with the triangular symbol with a lightning bolt may expose you to electrical shock.
  • Page 7: Protecting Against Electrostatic Discharge

    Protecting Against Electrostatic Discharge Static electricity can harm delicate components inside your system. To prevent static damage, discharge static electricity from your body before you touch any of your system’s electronic components. You can do so by touching an unpainted metal surface on the chassis. You can also take the following steps to prevent damage from electrostatic discharge (ESD): Limit your movement.

  • Page 27 We strongly recommend that you do not use half-duplex connections on the WAE or on routers, switches, Note or other devices. If you are connecting a WAE inline appliance between two devices using Gigabit Ethernet, you can use either straight-through cables, crossover cables, or any combination of the two cable types, regardless of the type of device.
  • Page 28 Cabling When you are directly connecting two network devices that are different, such as a switch and router, • use a straight-through cable. Because the inline network adapter has an internal crossover connection that becomes active Note when the InlineGroup interface is placed in mechanical bypass mode, you must decide which cable you would use to connect the two network devices directly, and then you must install the other cable type (on one side, usually the WAN side of the inline appliance) instead.
