Inserting the Cards

To insert a Cisco IGX module:

Step 1 Attach an ESD-preventive wrist strap to handle the cards.

Note The IGX 8410 cabinet has an attached wrist strap both at the front and back.

Step 2 Using the 5/32-inch Allen wrench, open the Cisco IGX 8400 Series switch door.

Step 3 Be sure that you are inserting the module into the correct slot.

Step 4 Grasp the card front panel with one hand and place your other hand under the card to balance the weight of the card as you push it vertically into the slot. (See Figure 3-6.)

Step 5 Push down on the ejector levers to properly seat the card.

Caution Always use the ejector levers when disengaging or seating the modules. Failure to do so can cause erroneous system error messages, and indicate card failure. However, do not use the ejector levers to lift or support the weight of the cards.

Step 6 Using the number 1 Phillips screwdriver, tighten the panel fasteners at the top and bottom of the card front panel.
