Magnum 6K32F/FR/FC/FRC Managed Switch Installation and User Guide (05/08)
3.5 6K32F Series Port Module (6KPM) Installation
The Magnum 6K32F Series Switches are received from the factory with the
customers required 6KPM modules installed. There may be situations where 6KPM cards
need to be added or replaced. In cases where a 6KPM module needs to be added in the
modular slots, the faceplate for an available front-mounted slot must be removed. The
following procedure describes this operation.
3.5.1 Preparation for Installing and Removing 6KPMs
STOP!!!
Be sure the power cord and connections
for all powers single or dual, is unplugged
from the chassis before attempting to remove
and/or replace any PM cards.
Failure to do so may result in damage to the unit
and will void the warranty.
Caution- Avoid Static Discharge: Opening of the 6K32F chassis can only be
performed by trained service persons. The port modules (like most
electronic equipment) are sensitive to static discharge. Use proper ESD
measures when handling port modules.
Step 1. Make sure the 6KPM Card package has all necessary accessories to install it
properly. Each 6KPM Card package for field installation contains
(Daughterboard (Bigger) and Granddaughter board (smaller), three 5/8 stand
offs for the Granddaughter board, seven #4-40 Pan-Head screws along with a
Front panel face plate package. The Front panel faceplate package includes the
front panel and four #4-40 Flat-Head screws.
NOTE: Every 6KPM Card package comes with their matching Daughter and
Granddaughter board. The copper 6KPM card should not work properly if
mixed with other Fiber combo 6KPM card packages. Always install the PM
module separately one by one to avoid the mixing.
NOTE for Power Substations: In support of the IEEE 1613 Class 2 standard, GCI
advises that, for substation applications, the serial RJ-45console ports are
intended for temporary connectivity to other equipment such as PCs. Since the
console port connection is temporary, it is excluded from IEEE 1613 packet-
loss testing per the 1613 standard-defined test procedure.
