– Installation procedures

 

Slot assignment 

MCM1000S/L  modules  may  be  installed  in  any  of  the  slots  marked  1  to 12,however by 
installing  modules  systematically  next  to  each  other  (from  left  to  right)  it  will  make  it 
easier to install additional modules in the future allowing clear access to the slots. 

Installation of Modules

 

All  MetroStar™  modules  are  hot  swappable  however  it  is  recommended  –  whenever 
operationally acceptable, to install a module (or swap an already installed module) while 
the system is powered OFF.   
All modules are equipped with two self-clinching screws 

– always use BOTH of them for 

safe insertion and removal of modules into/from the system. 

To install a module in a vacant slot:

 remove the blank panel covering the slot using a 

crosshead screwdriver. Hold the module vertically with one hand by the side facets of the 
metal  frame  of  the  module.  Do  not  touch  the  PCB  (printed  circuit  board)  or  any  of  the 
components with your hand. The frame is asymmetrical: its bottom end rectangular while 
its other side has a diagonally 

“cut” edge – make sure this side is up. Align both upper 

and lower edges of the PCB with the lower and upper Nylon guides of the slot and gently 
glide the module into the slot, applying only a small pressure. If correctly positioned and 
aligned, it should allow the module all the way in. At the final stage (2-3 mm short of full 
insertion) you will experience a slightly higher resistance 

– apply a higher pressure with 

your finger on the panel of the module till you feel it “clicks in” and its panel is flush with 
the surface of the chassis. At this po

int, if the MetroStar™ is powered ON the PWR LED 

(left-upper side of the module or any corresponding LEDs on the PMM) will light. If not lit, 
ensure  that  unit  is  powered  UP;  if  still  not  lit 

–  remove  the  module  and  re-insert.  Is 

problem  persists;  troubleshoot  by  inserting  same  module  in  a  different  slot  and/or 
another  module  in  the  suspected  slot.  Fasten  both  self-clinching  screws  using  your 
fingers  by  turning  them  clockwise,  while  doing  that  an  increasing  resistance  indicates 
that the screw is well aligned 

with it’s nut. Finally, using a crosshead screwdriver fasten 

both  screws  (normally  no  more  than  one  full  turn  will  be  required).  Make  sure  not  to 
apply excess power. 

To  Swap  a  module

:  Unfasten  the  2  screws  using  a  cross-head  screwdriver  then 

continue  by  turning  them  with  your  fingers  counter-clockwise  till  the  head  of  the  screw 
“pops  out”.  Hold  both  screws  with  fingers  of  BOTH  hands  and  pull  the  module  out. 
Ensure  applying  balanced  force  at  both  screws  to  maintain  vertical  position  throughout 
the process, although it might be necessary to slightly tilt the module at the very first mm. 
Continue  as  above  to  insert  the  new  module.  If  you  choose  to  leave  the  slot  vacant, 
always close it with a blank panel. 

Warning: 

Do not INSTALL a module into a slot with already attached TP/F/O cabling. 

 Connect  the  cables  to  the  module  ports  only  after  having

  verified  that  the  module  is  well 

inserted and its Power LED is lit.

 

Conversely,  DISCONNECT  the  TP/F/O  cabling  from  the  module  ports  before  replacing  it. 

Non-

compliance with the above procedure may cause module's malfunction.

 

 

 General considerations for MetroStar MCM1000X  modules 

The 

MetroStar™

 system is delivered by default equipped with 2 power supplies 

– either 

AC or DC. A third - redundant power supply module is optional. Each P.S. provides 14A. 
The PS modules (2 or 3 if the optional is installed) are operating in a load-sharing mode; 
therefore even the first 2 PS  modules   may provide a redundancy effect. The MCM1000S 
when loaded with 2 FO transceivers needs 1.3 amperes. If 12 such modules are installed, 
then the third P.S should be added, if redundancy is needed. With Up to 10 MCM1000S 
modules, two P.S provide redundancy.
