Engage the line card.
There may be moderate resistance when the line card meets the connectors in
the backplane. Press firmly so that the connectors at the back of the module
engage with the backplane, but do not use excessive force.
If the system is powered up, the module’s Power LED will light up green if the
line card is inserted properly.
Secure the line card.
Use a #2 Phillips or cross-head screwdriver to push in the captive fastening
screws and turn them clockwise until moderate resistance is felt. Do not
over-tighten.
Connect the appropriate network cables.
Removing a Line Card
The line card is hot-swappable and can be inserted into the Alcatel Wireless
LAN Switch chassis while system power is on or off. However, removing a
line card on a live switch is service affecting and all traffic processing will stop
until the replacement line card is installed and operating.
Make sure you understand the procedure and all precautions.
Before beginning, read the entire procedure. Make sure you understand all the
precautions in these installation instructions.
Disconnect all cables attached to the line card.
Loosen the module’s fastening screws.
At the front of the Alcatel Wireless LAN Switch, use a #2 Phillips or
cross-head screwdriver to loosen both of the fastening screws on the
faceplate of the installed line card. The screws loosen with counter-clockwise
rotation, but are captive and cannot be fully removed.
Remove the line card.
