Installing an HSIM in a SmartSWITCH Chassis
To install an HSIM into a SmartSWITCH chassis that supports HSIM technology refer to
Figure 3-4
and
Figure 3-5
, and perform the following steps:
1.
Power down the chassis and remove the power cord.
2.
Disconnect all network cables from the chassis. Note the ports to which these cables attach.
3.
Attach the antistatic wrist strap.
4.
Remove the chassis cover (refer to your specific chassis documentation for instructions on
removing the chassis cover).
5.
Remove and save the two faceplate mounting screws securing the HSIM coverplate and remove
the coverplate. See
Figure 3-4
.
6.
Remove and save the two standoff screws. See
Figure 3-4
.
7.
Place the HSIM behind the chassis faceplate. See
Figure 3-5
.
8.
Ensure that the standoffs on the chassis align with the standoff screw holes on the HSIM to
prevent bending the pins and insert the connector pins of the HSIM into the HSIM connector
on the chassis motherboard.
9.
Press down firmly on the back of the HSIM until the pins slide all the way into the connector
holes.
10.
Secure the HSIM to the faceplate using the screws saved in step 5.
11.
Secure the HSIM to the standoffs using the screws saved in step 6.
12.
Reattach the chassis cover to the chassis and reconnect the power cord.
13.
Reconnect the chassis to your network.
Ensure that you remove the power cord and ONLY the screws required to remove the
chassis cover. Failure to comply could result in an electric shock hazard.
Ensure that the chassis cover is in place before reconnecting the power cord.
