Preface
This document describes how Nortel Networks* trained service personnel can install or replace hardware components for models 4600, 4500, 4000, 2600, 2500, 2000, 1600, and 600 of the Contivity* products. The options include:
•Installing LAN and WAN option cards
•Installing hardware accelerator PCI cards
•Adding or replacing memory
•Replacing a power supply (4600, 4500, and 4000 only)
•Replacing a hard disk drive (4600, 4500, and 4000 only)
To install LAN, WAN, or hardware accelerator PCI cards and for system recovery operations, you must remove the front bezel, the top cover, and/or the rear
I/O panel tray, depending on the type of Contivity product you are servicing. The procedures for each Contivity model are described in the following chapters.
Warning: Only Nortel Networks trained service personnel should change existing hardware configurations. Improper handling of internal components or assemblies, with the power connected, could cause severe injury.
Warning: Note that some models must be returned to Nortel Networks Manufacturing via your Customer Service Representative for repair. Do not attempt to make any changes to these models, because untrained individuals could be harmed, you could invalidate your warranty, or you could possibly cause irreparable damage to the equipment.
