INSTALLING AN OPTIONAL MODULE INTO THE SWITCH

Figure 16: Installing an Optional Module

NOTE: The slide-in modules are hot-swappable, you do not need to power off the switch before installing or removing a module.

To install an optional module into the switch, do the following:

1.Remove the blank metal plate (or a previously installed module) from the appropriate slot by removing the two screws with a flat-head screwdriver.

2.Before opening the package that contains the module, touch the bag to the switch casing to discharge any potential static electricity. Also, it is recommended to use an ESD wrist strap during installation.

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

4.Holding the module level, guide it into the carrier rails on each side and gently push it all the way into the slot, ensuring that it firmly engages with the connector.

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

6.The Module LED on the switch’s front panel should turn green to confirm that the module is correctly installed and ready to use.
