QLE3044 Bracket Removal and Replacement

Depending on the type of system, installation of the QLE3044 requires either a long bracket or a short bracket. QLogic provides both of these brackets with the product. The brackets for the QLE3044 are different from previous brackets in that they slide over the top of the four RJ45 Ethernet jacks.

To remove and replace the bracket:

1.Remove the screw at the top of the QLE3044 that holds the bracket in place.

2.Slide the bracket upward towards the top of the QLE3044 until it clears all of the Ethernet jacks. (The bracket covers the top of the RJ45 Ethernet jacks.)

3.To replace with a different bracket, reverse the process, sliding the new bracket over the Ethernet jacks. Then fasten the bracket in place with the screw.

The removal and replacement process is illustrated in Figure 4-3and Figure 4-4, respectively.
