Installing Modules in the Unit

To insure proper installation, complete the following:

1.Power OFF the NH2025-10 switch.

2.Carefully slide an NH2025-10 module into a free dport and press firmly to insert.

3.Tighten the thumbscrews securely.

4.Power ON the NH2025-10 switch. If you have a flash version lower than 1.20 and you are installing F/O modules, you must download a new software version to the switch so that the firmware recognizes the new uplinks and the modules operate correctly.
