Installing a GBIC Module
Insert the GBIC module into the appropriate port until its connector is firmly
seated in the port. If you are using an IBM GBIC module, lock the module into
place with the locking bar. For other GBIC modules, the latch prongs
automatically lock to prevent accidental removal of the GBIC module.
NOTE:
The GBIC module is keyed so it can be inserted only one way. Do not force the
insertion if the module does not slide in easily.
Removing the Switch Cover
To remove the switch cover:
1.
Unscrew the two captive screws at the rear of the unit by turning them a
quarter turn to the left.
2.
Slide the cover at least ½ inch toward the rear of the unit.
3.
Lift off the cover.
CAUTION:
Always wear a ground wrist strap when opening the switch’s cover
to avoid electrostatic discharge.
CAUTION:
Attempting to remove the cover without first sliding the cover ½ inch
to the rear can damage the cover.
Replacing the Switch Cover
To replace the switch cover:
1.
Place the cover on the switch leaving ½ inch hanging over the front of
the unit.
2.
Slide the cover back until it slips down into the grooves on the top of the
chassis.
3.
Press the cover down.
4.
Gently slide the cover forward into the front panel until it engages.
