Installing the Module

You do not need to power down the ONline System Concentrator to install the Security Module. You can insert the module while the concentrator is operating (this is called a hot swap).

Installing the Module

Installing the Cable Tie-Wrap Kit

A cable tie-wrap kit is included with the Security Module. If you use a cable connector other than a 180° cable connector (for example, a 90° cable connector), you must secure the cable to the module connector using the tie-wrap kit. 3Com recommends using a 180° cable connector with the Security Module.

If you are using a 180° cable connector with the Security Module, skip this procedure and proceed to the next section, Installing the Module.

Note: Perform the tie-wrap kit installation procedure prior to installing the module into a 3Com ONline System Concentrator.

The tie-wrap kit contains:

Kit card containing kit part number

1 Phillips-head screw

1 Tie-wrap bracket

3 Tie-wraps
