Installing Line Cards

ELECTRICAL HAZARD: Only qualified personnel should perform installation procedures.

You can install line modules in slots 1 to 7 on the X-Pedition 8000 (slot 0 allows a control module only) or 1 to 15 on the X-Pedition 8600 (again, slot 0 allows a control module only). If you plan to install a redundant control module, you may install line cards in slots 2–7 on the X-Pedition 8000 and 2–15 on the X-Pedition 8600. Before you begin, please review Table 19 for system firmware requirements, restrictions, and special instructions that apply to the line card you are installing.
