Installing an Optional Module into the Switch
Figure 3-4. Installing an Optional Module
Caution: DO NOT install slide-in modules with the switch
powered on. Be sure you power off the switch before
installing any module.
To install an optional module into the switch, do the following:
1. Disconnect power to the switch.
2. Remove the blank metal plate (or a previously installed
module) from the appropriate slot by removing the two screws
with a flat-head screwdriver.
3. Before opening the package that contains the module, touch
the bag to the switch casing to discharge any potential static
electricity. Also, it is recommended to use an ESD wrist strap
during installation.
4. Remove the module from the anti-static shielded bag.
5. Holding the module level, guide it into the carrier rails on each
side and gently push it all the way into the slot, ensuring that it
firmly engages with the connector.
