Use anti-static packaging to keep fiber optic components safe from electrostatic discharge (ESD). This helps stop damage that could cause expensive problems. Keep connectors clean by using anti-static materials. Some manufacturers of electronic systems may tell you that ESD is not a problem with their products. However, design and details are often seen as a black box. In this application note, the types of ESD cells are discussed, why the cells are required, how to read a device data sheet to. Sometimes modules are not found or act weird after this. ESD can damage electronic circuits, leading to malfunction or complete failure of devices.
