Installing the Hardware
2.
Gently insert the GBIC module into the GBIC slot opening. The GBIC door on the line card folds
in, and the internal guides engage the alignment slots on the sides of the GBIC module.
Warning
If the GBIC module does not go in easily, do not force it. If the GBIC is not
oriented properly, it will stop about one quarter of the way into the slot and
should not be forced any further. Remove and reorient the GBIC module so
that it slides easily into the slot.
3.
Push the GBIC module in until the connector engages the 20-pin port. The GBIC is now installed.
