Installing the Module into the SmartSwitch 9000 Chassis

NOTE

To insure proper data transmission from the 9G421-02/9G429-02 module to the INB on the SmartSwitch 9000 backplane, two INB Terminator modules must be installed on the rear of the SmartSwitch 9000 chassis. If they have not previously been installed, refer to the INB Terminator Module Installation Guide for information and installation procedure.

To install the 9G421-02/9G429-02 module into the SmartSwitch 9000 chassis, follow these steps:

1.Remove the blank panel covering the slot in which you will install the module. If you are only installing one module, make sure the other module slots are covered. This action ensures proper airßow and cooling.

2.Attach one end of the ESD wrist strap (packaged with the SmartSwitch 9000 chassis) to your wrist. Plug the other end into the ESD Wrist Strap grounding receptacle in the lower right corner of the SmartSwitch 9000 chassis shown in Figure 2-5.

3.Grasp the module and slide it into the slot. Make sure that the moduleÕs circuit card is between the card guides, as shown in Figure 2-5.Check both the upper and lower tracks of the card. Make sure that the module slides in straight and engages the backplane connectors properly.

4.Lock down the top and bottom plastic tabs, as shown in Figure 2-5.
