OER front modules are hot-swappable and can be installed with
the power supply either turned on, or turned off.
Procedure
Follow these steps to install the front modules:
1. Pull out the finger-release screws on the right and left side of the
front panel of the frame, and then open it.
2. Locate the front module slot that corresponds with the matching
back module.
3. Gently remove the outer and inner protective caps from the laser
connections (see
Figure 2-2 on page 9
).
CAUTION
Microscopic dust or other contaminants can seriously impair or
disable a fiber optic network. Observe strict cleaning procedures.
Do not touch the end of the fiber.
4. Follow the fiber cleaning instructions that begin on
page 13
.
5. Ensure that your front module matches with a corresponding back
module of the same name, and then slide the module into the guides
on the frame floor.
6. When the module edge is flush with the guide, close the extractor
handle.
The module is properly seated when its edge is flush with the guide
edge and the extractor handle closes.
7. Close the front panel to ensure proper frame ventilation.
To prevent overheating, keep the front panel closed and all back
module plate slots covered during operation.
