Chapter 3 Removing and Installing the SA-VAM2+
SA-VAM2+ Removal and Installation
Step 1
Use an ESD wrist strap to ground yourself to the router. A banana jack ground is to the left of the power
switch.
Step 2
To remove a SA-VAM2+, use a Phillips screwdriver to turn the screw holding the latch. The screw should
be loose enough to allow the latch to rotate to an unlocked position (1). The latch can rotate 360
o
.
Step 3
Grasp the handle and pull the SA-VAM2+ (2) from the router, about halfway out of its slot. If you are
removing a blank port adapter, pull the blank port adapter completely out of the chassis slot.
Caution
The SA-VAM2+ must slide into the slot guides (3) close to the chassis lid. Do not allow the SA-VAM2+
components to come in contact with the system board or the SA-VAM2+ could be damaged.
Step 4
To insert the SA-VAM2+, carefully align the SA-VAM2+ carrier in the slot guides (3), then carefully
slide the SA-VAM2+ all the way into the slot until the SA-VAM2+ is seated.
Step 5
After the SA-VAM2+ is properly seated, turn and secure the latch in the upright, locked position (1).
Tighten the screw to ensure the SA-VAM2+ remains firmly in place.
Step 6
Reconnect the power cables.
Step 7
Press the power switch to the ON position to power on the router.
