Installing a Single-Wide Network Module
Step 9
Using the network module handle, push the NM-1VSAT-GILAT network module into place until you
feel the edge connector seat securely into the connector on the router backplane. The network module
faceplate should contact the chassis rear panel.
Step 10
Using a number 1 Phillips or flat-blade screwdriver, tighten the captive mounting screws on the network
module faceplate.
Caution
Make sure that the external power supply is disconnected from the NM-1VSAT-GILAT network module
before connecting or disconnecting cables from the RF-IN or RF-OUT connectors. If the external power
supply is connected to the ODU PWR connector while you connect or disconnect cables from the RF-IN
or RF-OUT connectors, you might short-circuit the NM-1VSAT-GILAT network module F connectors.
This may cause the network module to reset itself or lose data.
Step 11
Connect the RF cables to the RF-IN and RF-OUT connectors on the NM-1VSAT-GILAT network
module.
Step 12
Connect the power supply cable to the ODU PWR connector on the NM-1VSAT-GILAT network
module.
Step 13
Confirm that the network module LEDs come on. For more information about the LEDs, see the
“NM-1VSAT-GILAT Network Module LEDs” section on page 33-7
.
Step 14
Initiate a console session with your router.
Step 15
Enter satellite interface configuration mode, and enable the satellite interface:
