aware of the hazards to which they are exposed in performing a task. They are aware of measures to 
minimize the danger to themselves or other persons.
NOTE
Electronic components are sensitive to static electricity. ESD originating from you or from objects 
around you can damage these components. Exercise every possible precaution to prevent ESD 
when working around printed circuit assemblies.
Keep all printed circuit assemblies in protective ESD-preventive packaging or place them on 
antistatic mats until you are ready to install them. Wear an ESD-preventive wrist strap and ensure 
that the leash is securely grounded before handling a bare printed circuit assembly.
Some devices, such as I/O modules, contain fiber optic ports. To protect your eyes, you should 
never look at the fiber optic ports while they are on, or look directly at the fiber cable ends when 
they are on.
Installing the Chassis in a Rack
The Alpine 3800 series chassis fits in a standard 19-inch (48.26 cm) rack. Table 29 shows the height 
measurements for the Alpine 3800 series chassis.
The Alpine 3808 and Alpine 3804 chassis are shipped with preinstalled fan trays. The Alpine 3802 
chassis is shipped with a preinstalled power supply and fan tray. For your safety and to prevent 
damage to the equipment, Extreme Networks strongly recommends that you mount the chassis in the 
rack as shipped, before you install modules and power supplies. The increased weight of the chassis 
after components are installed can make the switch hard to maneuver.
NOTE
Mount the chassis in a rack before installing any switch components.
To mount the Alpine 3800 series chassis in a standard 19-inch (48.26 cm) rack, you need the following 
tools, equipment, and resources:
Helper bracket (provided) 
A minimum of four appropriate screws (not provided) to secure the helper bracket
For an Alpine 3808 or 3804, a minimum of eight appropriate screws (not provided) to secure the 
chassis to the rack 
For an Alpine 3802, a minimum of four appropriate screws (not provided) to secure the chassis to 
the rack
