Removing and Installing Modules in the Chassis
This section describes how to correctly remove and install a module in a Catalyst 6500 series switch chassis slot.
Caution During this procedure, wear grounding wrist straps to avoid ESD damage to the card.

Removing a Module from the Chassis
To remove a module from the chassis, perform these steps:
Step 1 Disconnect any network interface cables or console port cables attached to the module.
Step 2 Attach an ESD grounding strap to your wrist and to ground. (If you are unsure about the correct way to attach an ESD grounding strap, refer to the “Attaching Your ESD Grounding Strap” section on page 40 for instructions.)
Step 3 Verify that the captive installation screws on all of the modules in the chassis are tight. This step assures that the space created by the removed module is maintained.
Note If the captive installation screws are loose, the electromagnetic interference (EMI) gaskets on the installed modules will push the modules toward the open slot, reducing the opening size and making it difficult to reinstall the module.
Step 4 Loosen the two captive installation screws on the module.
