INSTALLATION

This chapter contains instructions for unpacking and installing the 7H02-06 Module in the 7C03, 7C04, 7C04-R MMAC SmartSwitch. Also included in the chapter are instructions for the front panel FEPIMs.

3.1 UNPACKING THE 7H02-06 MODULE

Unpack the 7H02-06 Module by using the following steps:

1.Carefully remove the module from the shipping box. (Save the box and packing materials in the event the module must be reshipped.)

2.Remove the module from the plastic bag. Observe all precautions to prevent damage from Electrostatic Discharge (ESD).

3.Carefully examine the module and check for damage. If damage exists, DO NOT install the module; contact Cabletron Systems Technical Support.

3.2INSTALLING FEPIMS

The 7H02-06 module is shipped without an FEPIM. To install an FEPIM, follow the procedure below:

1.Remove the module if it is installed in the 7C03 MMAC SmartSwitch chassis (follow the procedure in Section 3.3.2.)

Note: The procedure for removing the module depends upon the chassis

(7C03,7C04 or 7C04-R) the module is installed in. See the applicable removal procedure contained within the following pages.

2.Remove the module faceplate by removing the 3 screws on the bottom of the module. Carefully remove the module faceplate exposing the slot for the FEPIM (see Figure 3-1).
