Replacing a Switch Fabric Module (FSX 800 and FSX 1600 only)
This section provides information about the following tasks:
•
Removing a switch fabric module
•
Installing a new switch fabric module
NOTE:
The switch fabric module is dedicated, which means that you must install it in the FSX 800 or FSX 1600
chassis only. If you attempt to install the switch fabric module in the FSX or another Foundry chassis, the chassis
and module will not function properly.
Removing a Switch Fabric Module
You can remove a switch fabric module from the chassis while it is powered on and running.
Before removing a switch fabric module from the chassis, have the following on hand:
•
An ESD wrist strap with a plug for connection to the ESD connector on the chassis.
WARNING:
For safety reasons, the ESD wrist strap should contain a series 1 meg ohm resistor.
•
A #2 Phillips-head or flathead screwdriver.
To remove a switch fabric module from the chassis, do the following:
1.
Put on the ESD wrist strap and ground yourself by inserting the plug into the ESD connector located in the
lower right corner of the chassis front.
2.
Use a #2 Phillips-head or flathead screwdriver to loosen and remove the two screws on the ends of the
module.
3.
Pull the card ejectors towards you and away from the module front panel. This action unseats the module
from the backplane.
4.
Pull the module out of the chassis, and place in an anti-static bag for storage if desired.
5.
Install a new module in the slot as instructed in the following section.
Installing a New Switch Fabric Module
You can install a switch fabric module in the chassis while it is powered on and running.
Before installing a switch fabric module into the chassis, have the following on hand:
•
A new switch fabric module, which you can order from Foundry.
•
An ESD wrist strap with a plug for connection to the ESD connector on the chassis front.
WARNING:
For safety reasons, the ESD wrist strap should contain a series 1 meg ohm resistor.
•
A #2 Phillips-head or flathead screwdriver.
To install a new switch fabric module in the chassis, do the following:
1.
Put on the ESD wrist strap and ground yourself by inserting the plug into the ESD connector located in the
lower right corner of the chassis front.
2.
Remove the new switch fabric module from its packaging.
3.
Insert the module into the chassis slot as shown in Figure 7.4 and Figure 7.5, and slide the card along the
card guide until the ejectors on either side of the module move close to the module front panel.
4.
Push the ejectors toward the center of the module. This action will fully seat the module in the backplane.
