Installing cards in an expansion chassis

Installing cards in an expansion chassis

Install the lowest-priority cards in any available card slots in the UPS, and then use an expansion chassis for remaining higher-priority cards. In a Triple Expansion Chassis:

•Install each card, starting with the lowest priority (see “Before you start” on page 18) in the lowest-numbered slot.

•If you are installing a Network Management Card, install it in slot 3, even if you are leaving another slot empty.

Installing cards in expansion chassis set up serially

If you have increased your management card capacity by connecting multiple expansion chassis serially (in a cascading setup), install the Network Management Card in the highest-numbered slot, and the Out-of-Band Management Card in the second-highest-numbered slot of the chassis installed farthest from the UPS.

Warning: Do not attach more than two Network Management Cards or one Building Management Integration Card to a UPS.

If the Network Management Card is pre-installed in the UPS, refer instead to “When a management card has been pre-installed.” on page 20

Installing cards in a Symmetra UPS

If you are installing a Network Management Card without an attached expansion chassis, install that card in the highest numbered slot, even if you are leaving other slots empty. If you are using an expansion chassis, see “Installing cards in an expansion chassis” on page 19.
