OmniAccess 6000 LC-2G24F Installation Notes: Installation Guide

Grasp the module handle firmly and draw the line card forward from its slot. There may be moderate resistance as the module comes free from its connections with the chassis backplane, but do not use excessive force. Once disengaged from the backplane, the line card should easily slide out the rest of the way.

5Cover blank slots.

For safety considerations, as well as to promote proper airflow for cooling and to prevent dust from entering the switch chassis, cover any unoccupied slot with a blank cover plate.

The port accepts a 4- or 8-conductor Category 5 UTP Ethernet cable with an RJ-45 male connector. A straight-through cable is required for connection to a network port. A crossover cable is required for connection to a management workstation.

For cables that run through plenums or air-handling spaces as described in NEC (2002) Article 300.22(C), the cable should be suitable under NEC Article

800.50and marked accordingly for use in plenums and air-handling spaces with regard to smoke propagation, such as CL2-P, CL3-P, MPP or CMP. Be sure to install cables in accordance with all applicable local regulations and practices.
