Installing the Module

To install the Security Module:

1.If you do not have a management module installed in the concentrator, make sure you set the DIP switches properly on the board, if different than the default settings.

A management module is required to configure the security features of the Security Module. Without management, the Security Module functions as a non-secure 10BASE-T module.

2.Locate an open slot in the concentrator. Remove the blank panel on the concentrator to expose a slot for the module.

Insert the module into the board guides at the top and bottom of the slot and slide it into the concentrator by firmly pressing the top and bottom of the faceplate. Make sure the connector is well-seated into the backplane of the concentrator. Figure 3-4 shows the installation of the module.

3.Fasten the spring-loaded screws on the front of the Security Module faceplate to the concentrator with your fingers (do not overtighten).
