Removing the Ethernet Switching Module
This section describes how to remove an Ethenet module from the switch chassis.
Required Tools
The following tools are required to perform the PoE daughter card removal and installation procedures:
•
Number 2 Phillips screwdriver for the captive installation screws on the module on which the
daughter card is to be removed or installed.
Note
We recommend that you use a Number 2 Phillips magnetic tip.
•
Magnetic-tip Number 1 Phillips screwdriver for the screws and cap nuts that fasten the daughter card
to the Ethernet module.
•
Antistatic mat or antistatic foam.
•
Your own ESD-prevention equipment or the disposable grounding wrist strap included with all
upgrade kits, field-replaceable units (FRUs), and spares.
Removing the Ethernet Switching Module
Caution
During this procedure, wear grounding wrist straps to avoid ESD damage to the card.
Warning
Before opening the unit, disconnect the telephone-network cables to avoid contact with
telephone-network voltages.
Statement 1041
Warning
Do not work on the system or connect or disconnect cables during periods of lightning activity.
Statement 1001
Warning
To avoid electric shock, do not connect safety extra-low voltage (SELV) circuits to telephone-network
voltage (TNV) circuits. LAN ports contain SELV circuits, and WAN ports contain TNV circuits. Some
LAN and WAN ports both use RJ-45 connectors. Use caution when connecting cables.
Statement 1021
Warning
Voltages that present a shock hazard may exist on Power over Ethernet (PoE) circuits if
interconnections are made using uninsulated exposed metal contacts, conductors, or terminals.
Avoid using such interconnection methods, unless the exposed metal parts are located within a
restricted access location and users and service people who are authorized within the restricted
access location are made aware of the hazard. A restricted access area can be accessed only
through the use of a special tool, lock and key or other means of security.
