Chapter 1 Unpacking and Installing the CSS

Installing a CSS 11800 Module

Installing a Passive SCM or SFM

You can install a passive SCM or SFMs (which includes SFM2s) in a CSS 11800 chassis. Passive modules are stand-by modules in case of an active module failure. When an active module fails, the passive module becomes active. Passive modules do not load share processing functions with the active module.

Note The SCM contains a small lithium battery. Some jurisdictions restrict the ways in which items containing lithium batteries may be disposed. In particular, lithium batteries or products containing lithium batteries may never be disposed of in an unregulated fire. Other restrictions might apply. See Appendix A, Specifications for lithium battery disposal warnings.

Warning Ultimate disposal of a lithium battery should be handled according to all national laws and regulations.

The CSS 11800 enables you to install a passive:

SCM for the active SCM

SFM for each of the two active SFMs (total of four SFMs)

Note You can mix SFMs with SFM2s in the same CSS 11800 chassis. However, you must use the same type module as the active SFM and as the passive SFM.

To install a passive SCM or SFM:

1.Properly ground yourself prior to handling the module.

2.If the CSS is powered up, power it down.

3.As defined in Table 1-1:

SCMs are restricted to slots 7 or 8

Passive SFMs are restricted to slots 5 and 10 (by default, active SFMs are in slots 6 and 9, respectively)

4.If necessary, remove a blank panel from the chassis to expose a slot.
