Installing the Hardware

The overpack is the outer shell of the packaging. Lift
the overpack straight up until it slides free from the rest of
the packaging. This allows easy access to the chassis.
5
Carefully remove the protective plastic from the switch
chassis.
6
In order to reduce the weight of the chassis, it is
recommended that you remove all factory-installed power
supplies prior to lifting it from the packaging. Steps 7
through 12 below provide instructions for removing power
supplies.
Note.
Steps 7 through 12 apply to power supplies that are
newly-shipped in the switch chassis. They have no power
cords attached and the on/off switches are in the off ( O )
position. For instructions on removing power supplies that
are currently operating in an existing switch, refer to your
Hardware Users Guide
.
7
Loosen the two captive screws, located at the top and
bottom of the power supply’s front panel. If necessary, use
a flat-blade screwdriver to loosen the screws. Be sure that
both captive screws are completely disengaged from the
threaded holes in the chassis before continuing.
Note.
Alcatel provides factory-installed blank cover plates
for empty module slots. Do not remove these cover plates
as they play an important role in chassis ventilation.

With one hand, grasp the handle at the front of the
power supply and slowly pull the power supply out of the
power supply bay.
Do not pull the power supply
completely out of the bay with one hand.
