Installing 2x100GbE interface modules in NetIron XMR routers
FIGURE 89 Removing the center slot guide
4. Remove the two connector covers from the rear connectors of the module. Refer to Figure 90 .
5. Remove the port cover from one or both ports, depending on how you plan to use your module. If you are using one port only
(always Port 1), you must leave the port cover in the inactive port (always Port 2). Port covers are designed for a tight fit and will
take some effort to remove. Refer to
Figure 90 .
NOTE
Do not use the port cover tabs to lift the module. They are not designed to support the weight of the module, which can fall
and be damaged.

6. Insert the module into the slot until the connectors securely engage the backplane.
In 4- and 8-slot devices, the modules are installed horizontally. In 16- and 32-slot devices the modules are installed vertically.
Figure 91 and Figure 92 show how to install 2x100G modules in horizontal and vertical slots (4-slot and 16-slot devices are
shown, but the process is the same for 8-slot and 32-slot devices).
NOTE
The 2x100G interface module is sensitive to dust and debris. Keep the optics covers in place until you are ready to connect
the fiber cable. Clean all fiber cables properly before you connect them to the 2x100G interface module.
