I recently purchased a cisco 48 port poe switch and a 4 port 10gb fiber network card for it, separate ebay purchases, and neither had anti static bags. They were both wrapped in bubble wrap but the switch came within Styrofoam packing peanuts. The styrofoam packing peanuts always have a great deal of static buildup.
What are your thoughts on this? Am I just being paranoid about potential static discharge with items being wrapped in bubble wrap only and no anti static bag?
I look forward to everyone else’s thoughts. Hoping I’m just being paranoid and that it’s perfectly fine.
Note: the items booted up fine.
Thanks
Cisco WS-C3850-12X48U-S and the C3850-NM-4-10G card
Super stoked to set this thing up. Also puchased a second psu for it for 21 bucks on ebay
12 ports are 10gb ethernet and the rest are 1gb. All are UPOE
