Installing and removing an expansion card
CAUTION:
•
Do not touch the surface-mounted components on an expansion card directly with your hands.
•
Do not use excessive force when you install or remove an expansion card.
•
You can install or remove an expansion card when the switch is operating correctly. Do not install
or remove an expansion card while the switch is starting up.
•
Only the LSWM124MUPWR interface module cannot be hot swapped. The other interface
modules can be hot swapped.
The S6520X-30QC-EI, S6520X-54QC-EI, S6520X-30HC-EI, S6520X-54HC-EI, S6520X-30QC-HI,
S6520X-54QC-HI, S6520X-30HC-HI, and S6520X-54HC-HI switches each provide two expansion
slots on the rear panel. The S6520X-54HC-UPWR-EI switch provides an expansion slot on both the
front and rear panels. For the expansion cards available for the switch, see hardware information
and specifications for the switch series.
The installation and removal procedures are similar for expansion cards. The following procedures
install and remove LSWM4SP8PM (with one ejector lever), LSWM124SFPP (with two ejector levers),
and LSPM6FWD (without an ejector lever) interface modules.
Installing an expansion card
To install an expansion card:
1.
Wear an ESD wrist strap. Make sure the strap makes good skin contact and is reliably
grounded.
