Installing / removing a media module
Installing a media module
For installation, you require a slotted screwdriver with a 2.8 mm wide blade.
Note
Installing a Fast Ethernet media module is the same in the IE Switch X-400 and in the media
module extender.
1.
Remove the cover from the slot of the media module and remove the protective cap of
the module terminal strip underneath from the backplane of the basic device.
Note
Keep these parts in a safe place in case you want to remove the media module later.
2.
Remove the inserted labeling strip from the front of the media module.
3.
Place the two lower guides of the media module into the recesses at the lower edge of
the basic device. It should no longer be possible to move the media module to the side.
4.
Tilt the media module at an angle towards the back until the two plastic pins at the back
top edge of the media module jut into the recesses in the basic device. The terminal strip
of the media module must fit into the guide in the backplane.
5.
Press the upper part of the media module onto the basic device until the fluted middle
section of the media module is heard to click into place.
6.
Tighten the captive screw on the front of the media module with a slotted screwdriver with
a 2.8 mm wide blade.
7.
Secure the labeling strip on the front of the media module.
