2.3Installing the BRIM-F6

This section contains procedures on how to install a BRIM-F6 to upgrade or change the capabilities of a device’s motherboard.

Note: Cabletron provides disposable wrist straps and faceplate and standoff screws in both the BRIM package and on devices that support BRIM technology.

You can install a BRIM-F6 in any device that supports BRIM technology (e.g., EMM-E6, ESXMIM, NBR-420/620, or MicroMMAC). The following subsections provide instructions for installing a BRIM-F6 in a MIM or in a stand-alone hub. Refer to speciﬁc MIM or hub documentation for exact BRIM slot and connector locations.
