Removing and installing a power filler panel
A power filler panel maintains the proper cooling airflow in the Ethernet Routing Switch 8300 Series chassis. If you remove a power supply from the Ethernet Routing Switch 8300 Series chassis without replacing it, you must install a power filler panel. When you install a power supply, you must first remove the power filler panel from the power bay.
To remove a filler panel:
Step Action
1Using a Phillips screwdriver, loosen the two captive screws that fasten the power filler panel to the chassis until the screws are free of the threads in the chassis frame.
2Pull the power filler panel out of the Ethernet Routing Switch 8300 Series chassis.
Save the power filler panel in case you need to operate the Ethernet Routing Switch 8300 Series chassis with a power supply removed.
To install a power filler panel:
Step Action
1Place the power filler panel in the empty power supply bay.
2Tighten the two captive screws until the power filler panel is seated firmly.
