2.2INSTALLING THE HSIM-W87

Only qualified personnel should install or service this unit.

An HSIM-W87 can be installed in any Cabletron Systems device that supports HSIM technology (e.g., 2H252-25R, 2E42-27, 6E132-25).

NOTE

Refer to the release notes for the version of firmware running on the Cabletron Systems host platform to ensure that the HSIM-W87 is supported.

The following subsections provide instructions for installing an HSIM-W87 in a host platform. Refer to the specific interface module or standalone device document for exact HSIM slot and connector locations.

2.2.1Installing the HSIM-W87 in an Interface Module

To install an HSIM-W87 in an interface module that supports HSIM technology, perform the following steps.

1.Note the ports of the interface module that have cables attached to them. Write down the ports and label the cables to make it easier to reattach the network properly after the installation. Then disconnect those cables from the ports.

2.Attach the antistatic wrist strap (refer to the instructions outlined on the antistatic wrist strap package).

3.If the interface module is installed in a chassis, unlock the top and bottom plastic locking tabs of the module faceplate.

4.Remove the module from the chassis, and place it down flat with the internal components facing up.

5.Remove and save the two faceplate mounting screws securing the HSIM coverplate and remove the coverplate. See Figure 2-1.
