Remove a DOCSIS Module
The DOCSIS Module is hot-swappable, so you can remove it or install it while the CMTS is
powered on.
1. Loosen the two retainer screws.
2. Press upward and downward on the ejector releases (action #1 in Figure 47 on
page 167), but do not pull on the ejectors until the blue Hot Swap LED on the faceplate is
illuminated (see Figure12 on page 30).
3. After the Hot Swap LED is illuminated, simultaneously pull the ejectors away from the
module faceplate. The ejectors should rest at approximately 45° from the faceplate. At
this point, the module is physically and electrically removed from its connectors on the
midplane.
4. Slowly slide the module out of its slot until it is fully removed from the system.
5. Insert the module into an anti-static bag, being careful to avoid directly touching any
component on the module. We recommend that you handle the module by its card
edges or ejectors.
If a DOCSIS Module is being hot-swapped, this procedure
assumes you have moved all services supported by that
module to another DOCSIS Module.
One of the ejector releases on the DOCSIS Module
activates a microswitch that signals the module to
condition itself for hot-swapping.
