Accton Technology CheetaSwitch Workgroup-3726M manual Connecting to the Stack’s Backplane

Installing the Switch

You can install a module as described below:

1. Disconnect power to the switch (the modules are not hot-swappable).

2. Remove the face plate on the appropriate slot by removing the two screws with a flat-head screwdriver.

3.Before opening the package that

contains the module, touch the bag to the switch casing to discharge any potential static electricity.

4.Remove the module from the anti-static shielded bag.

5.Holding the module level, gently push it all the way into the slot along the guide rails, ensuring that it firmly engages with the connector.

6.If you are sure the module is properly mated with the connector, tighten the retainer screws to secure the module in the expansion slot.

The slide-in modules are not hot-swappable. Be sure you power off the switch before installing any of these modules.

Connecting to the Stack’s Backplane

Plug one end of the stack cable (provided with the package) in the “Down” port of the top unit and the other end to the “Up” port of the next unit. Repeat this step for each unit in the stack. Form a simple chain starting at the Down port on the top switch and ending at the Up port on the bottom switch (stacking up to 4 units).
