2.2.2 Installing Device onto Desktop
In many cases, users do not have a standard 19” rack, so people often place switches on a cleaning working
platform. Such operation is relatively simple, and the only following aspects should be concerned during
operation:
Ensure the working platform is stable and well grounded.
A 10 cm space around switch is left for heat dissipation.
Do not place heavy objects on switches.
2.2.3 Installation and Removal of Power Module
Installation Process:
The power modules for 9171 series of routing switches are pluggable. Installation process of power modules
is as follows:
Step 1: Wear ESD-preventive wrist strap, and confirm that the anti-static wrist strap is well earthed.
Step 2: Maintain correct up-down direction of power module (in line with the positive direction of
characters, if turned upside down, the power module can not be inserted to the end due to structural
limit specially designed inside chassis), grip the handle on the front end of power module to be
installed with one hand and support the bottom of power module with another hand, and insert the
power module by smoothly sliding along the power slot until the plug of power module comes into full
contact with the socket inside chassis.
Step 3: Tighten up the fastening screws on the left and right sides of power module with a cross-head
screwdriver.
Removal Process:
The power modules for 9171 series of routing switches are pluggable. Removal process of power modules is
