Cisco Systems 11500 Series manual Installing a Module into a CSS Chassis

Chapter 1 Unpacking and Installing the CSS

Installing a CSS Module

To install a module:

1.Properly ground yourself prior to handling the module. For example, wear the anti-static wrist strap (included in the accessory kit) and stick the copper-tape end of the strap to an unpainted metal surface on the chassis. Make sure that the wrist strap makes good contact with your skin.

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

3.Locate an open slot in the chassis for the module. See Table 1-3to identify possible slots for the module. If necessary, use a #1 Phillips screwdriver to remove a blank panel from the chassis to expose a slot for the module.

4.Insert the module into the board guides at the left and right of the slot. Make sure that the ejectors are fully extended outward. Slide the module into the chassis by pressing firmly at the left and right of the faceplate as shown in Figure 1-8.
