3.4. NM Module Installation
Fiber Driver modules including the FD NM are hot-swappable in a powered Fiber Driver chassis. A
#1 Phillips and a 5.0 flat-tip screwdriver may be useful when working with Fiber Driver chassis and
components.
If it does become necessary to handle the MCC NM, refer to the guidelines described below for the Fiber
Driver NM with allowances for the illustrated Fiber Driver chassis examples.
Follow all guidelines to eliminate static electricity while handling the module and other electronic devices.
Follow all safety suggestions in this manual and guidelines for all related equipment.
Step 1 Remove the blank panel or old module from the target chassis slot. Unfasten the mounting screws
with a 6-inch Phillips screwdriver, or disengage any thumb screws by hand.
Remove the required blank panels
To comply with FCC regulations and for optimal cooling air flow, a cover panel or a module must cover
every chassis slot. To limit external signals, no chassis slot should remain open when the unit is operational.
Secure modules and panels with appropriate screws for grounding and further compliance.
Step 2 Install the module into a Fiber Driver chassis by aligning the edge of the circuit board with the rail
of the chassis. Tighten the thumbscrew by hand, and do not over-tighten.
Module installation (not all chassis are shown)
Handle modules by the edges to avoid damaging any components. Follow ESD precautions in this manual
and electrical component guidelines. Push the module securely into the chassis slot your thumbs. Do not
use excessive force, but make sure the module connector is fully inserted in the chassis. Secure the module
by hand using the thumbscrew.
