W

ARNING

Obey the electrostatic discharge (ESD) 

procedures described at 

www.radisys.com

 when you install 

the product. 
Electrostatic discharge can cause permanent damage to 

static-sensitive components in this product. Important ESD 
procedures include: 

ƒ

Keep the product in its ESD shielding bag until a step 

tells you to remove it.

ƒ

Put on a grounded wrist strap before you move near or 

touch the product.

ƒ

Install the product only in a grounded work area.

 

Prepare for installation

The installation of the SCM requires the following:

ƒ

An AdvancedTCA® (ATCA®) shelf, such as a RadiSys 
ATCA-6000, ATCA-6006, ATCA-6014, or ATCA-6016 
shelf

ƒ

A 9-pin D-shell to RJ-45 serial port cable (shipped 
with the SCM)

ƒ

A standard crossover Ethernet cable

ƒ

Adequate ventilation for the shelf 

Install SFPs or XFPs on the SCM

The SCM comes with sockets for small form-factor 
pluggable (SFP) and 10 Gigabit small form-factor 
pluggable (XFP) transceiver modules. If SFPs and XFPs 
are installed, they can provide external connections to the 
Ethernet interfaces. The sockets are accessed from the 
faceplate of the SCM.
