Using the
Caution: Centillion modules use electronic components that are sensitive to static electricity. Static discharge from your clothing or other items around you, even at levels that do not create a spark, can cause damage. Take all possible precautions to prevent static discharge damage when working with printed circuit boards.
Keep each board in its protective conductive bag until you are ready to install it. If possible, place all printed circuit boards on an antistatic mat and wear a grounded antistatic wrist strap and leash to free yourself of static.
If you lack a grounded antistatic wrist strap and mat, be careful to stand in one place where you work (so you do not generate static electricity by friction) and to free yourself of static by touching the metal of a grounded chassis before handling a printed circuit board.
Installing the TokenSpeed Module
You can insert or remove a TokenSpeed module from a switch chassis while the power is on without interrupting service in the other installed modules. This ability is referred to as “hot swapping.”
Note: A TokenSpeed module can be hot inserted into a switch chassis at any time. However, before removing an active module from a switch chassis, you must deactivate the module by either unplugging all port cables or disabling all ports on the module. For additional information, see “Removing and Replacing a Module” on page
To install and secure the module in the chassis, follow these steps:
1.Remove the filler panel.
a.Loosen the two captive retaining screws on a filler panel until they pop free of the chassis frame.
