Installing Optional Network Expansion Module (NEM)

Installing Optional Network Expansion Module (NEM)

Note: Install any optional equipment before proceeding to “DFE Module Placement and Installation Rules” on page 3-3 for an explanation of the rules to install different series modules in a Matrix E7 chassis.

A Phillips screwdriver is required to install an optional network expansion module into the 4H4285‐49.

Refer to your release notes or the Enterasys Networks web site for the latest available network expansion modules.

Installing an network expansion module involves

removing the safety cover,

removing the coverplate from the 4H4285‐49,

attaching the NEM, and

replacing the safety cover.

Specific installation instructions are shipped with each NEM.

DFE Module Placement and Installation Rules

The DFE module can be installed in a Matrix E7 (refer to Figure 3‐1 on page 3‐4 for placement rules), Matrix N3, Matrix N5, or Matrix N7 chassis.

The Matrix N3, Matrix N5, or Matrix N7 chassis support only DFE modules and there are no particular rules for installing modules.

Caution: Regardless of which chassis is used, the chassis system must be dedicated to DFE-Gold modules (4xxxxx) only. Do not insert 7xxxxx modules or other legacy modules into the same chassis with 4xxxxx modules as this will render the chassis inoperable.

Precaución: Cualquiera que sea el chasis que utilice, recuerde que el sistema debe aplicarse exclusivamente a los módulos DFE (Distributed Forwarding Engine) de la serie Gold (4xxxxx). No inserte módulos 7xxxxx ni otros módulos legado dentro de un chasis con módulos 4xxxxx. Si lo hace, el chasis no funcionará.
