Installing an iMcV-Module

iMcV-Modules install in IMC Networks’ SNMP manageable iMediaChassis series or in any MediaChassis/IE-MediaChassis series.

To install an iMcV-Module:

1. Remove the blank bracket covering the slot where the module is to be installed by removing the screws on the outside edges of the bracket.

2. Slide the iMcV-Module into the chassis, via the cardguides, until the module is seated securely in the connector.

3. Secure the module to the chassis by tightening the captive screw.

4. Save any “blanks” removed during installation for future use if the configuration requirements change.

NOTE

All modules are hot-swappable
