Preparing and Installing the 9A426-01 Module

 

Unpacking an APIM

 

1. Remove the APIM from the shipping box. (Save the box and packing 

materials in the event the APIM must be reshipped.)

2. Remove the APIM from the non-conductive bag. 

3. Examine the APIM and check for damage. If damage exists, DO NOT proceed; 

contact Cabletron Systems Technical Support. Otherwise, place the APIM 
back into the non-conductive bag, set the APIM aside, and proceed.
