About SIEM 9700 Series Appliances

Symantec SIEM 9700 Series Appliances are scalable Security Information and

Event Management appliances, offering assured performance with Symantec's

Security Information Manager™ software. SIEM 9700 Series is comprised of three

models; the 9750, 9751, and 9752. Each provide features such as 3.9TB of

redundant event storage, Enterprise connectivity via 8GB Fibre Channel (on the

9751 and 9752) and robust, dedicated out-of-band remote management designed

to enhance Symantec’s already industry-leading ease-of-use and accelerate

time-to-value. 9700 Series physical appliances can also be combined seamlessly

with virtual appliances ensuring full interoperability with the technology platforms

of the modern Enterprise.

The differences in the SIEM 9700 Series appliance models are as follows:

■ SIEM 9750 - contains no FC HBA card.

■ SIEM 9751 - contains a 2-Port 8 Gb FC HBA card.

■ SIEM 9752 - contains a 4-Port 8 Gb FC HBA card.

Electrical safety

High voltage precautions

A high-voltage power supply provides power for the device. Direct or indirect

contact (through damp objects) with a high-voltage power supply (including the

main power in a building) can result in fatal danger.

■ When installing the AC power supply, follow standard safety regulations.

Personnel who install the AC power supply must be qualified to perform high

voltage and AC operations.

■ Do not wear conductive objects such as a watch, chain, bracelet, or ring during

the operation.

■ Switch off the power supply immediately if you find water in the cabinet or if

the rack is damp.

■ Make sure that the device is kept away from water when being operated in a

damp environment

Improper operation on a high voltage power supply may result in fire and electric

shock. To connect and route the AC cables through a certain area, you must follow

standard rules and regulations. Personnel must have an up-to-date certificate for

operating high voltage and AC power devices.

See “High voltage tools” on page 20.

High voltage tools

You must use insulated tools when operating on high voltage and AC power.
