4.

 

Put the packed power module and power cable into the box. Place the power module in a correct 

direction onto the foam cushion in the box; otherwise, the power module cannot be completely 
seated into the foam cushion.  

Repackaging the card 

1.

 

Prepare the anti-static bag and box of the card. Make sure the bag is clean, dry, and not 

damaged.  

2.

 

Remove the transceiver modules from the card. If no transceiver module is installed on the card, go 
to the next step.  
For how to remove a transceiver module, see “Replacement procedures.”  

3.

 

Remove all cards from the chassis slots, and install blank filler panels to the empty slots.  
For how to remove a card and install a blank filler panel, see “Replacement procedures.”  

4.

 

Put the card into the anti-static bag.  

5.

 

Put the packed card into the box, and tape the flaps of the box with packing tape. Place the card 
in a correct direction onto the foam cushion in the box; otherwise, the power module cannot be 

completely seated into the foam cushion.  

Repackaging the switch chassis 

Removing the chassis from the rack 

The S7508E-X switch is heavy. If possible, use a mechanical lift to move the switch. 
Follow these steps to remove the chassis from the rack: 

1.

 

Prepare the wooden carton and packing bag of the chassis. Make sure the carton and bag are 

clean, dry, and not damaged.  

2.

 

Remove the top cap and side panels from the wooden carton, and put the pallet base to a secure 
place.  

3.

 

As shown in callout 1 in 

Figure 54

, use a Phillips screwdriver to loosen the screws that attach the 

mounting brackets to the rack.  

4.

 

As shown in callout 2 in 

Figure 54

, use at least two persons to slide the chassis outwards along the 

slide rails. When most part of the chassis is removed from the slide rails, lift up the chassis by 

holding the handles at the chassis sides to completely remove the chassis from the rack.
